Does pot make you a better parent? This 'garden mom' says yes, but the reality is hazy

A new trend has emerged on social media among women rejecting the wine mom culture of generations past and instead smoking marijuana to unwind from the stressors that come with motherhood and life.

They call themselves "garden moms." Fox News Digital spoke with one of these moms, Taylor Mitchem, who goes by @thatgardenmomma on TikTok and Instagram, sharing her typical day-in-the-life as a Colorado mom of a six-year-old daughter who partakes in smoke sessions.

Mitchem explained that "gardening" is code for smoking weed to be able to make it past the algorithms.

These moms have used #gardenmom as a code for videos showing their marijuana use.

Dr.

Jeremy London, a cardiovascular surgeon who also has a background in functional medicine, spoke with Fox News Digital about this trend and offered warnings about marijuana use.

Dr.

London has millions of followers on social media , where he shares health tips.

He is also the host of "The London Podcast," has a newsletter , does speaking engagements and has been a guest on top shows like "The Mel Robbins Podcast" and "The School of Greatness," hosted by Lewis Howes.

He acknowledged the desire to find things to help people unwind but said it is important to weigh all the risks.

"Life is really stressful and it's hard," he said.

"But like everything in life, particularly when we're looking at things that we're doing to our bodies, there's consequences." Mitchem shared that by smoking weed, she feels more clarity and focus as a mother.

"I've always grown up feeling like there was something a little different about me and no medication up or down was going to help that until I found cannabis ," she said.
