About This Event

Whether you come to catch up with industry friends, make new ones, or both, you’ll love joining this casual cannabis evening (60+ will be in attendance).

Come for all or part of the evening as we break hardo bread and talk bud, deepen existing connections, and make meaningful new ones. 

We invite you to support “Good to Go Jamaican Cuisine”, an Evanston favorite, by purchasing their tasty Jamaican food and drinks (menu and pricing information available here).


Please RSVP ("buy" a free ticket) so we know how much space is needed.

There will be other space/seating available if you family wants to come to the restaurant for dinner.


Weather permitting:

The large "garage door" will be open, providing direct access to the outdoor patio.

Guests are asked to abide by prevailing mask mandates.

This is NOT a consumption event.


Special out of town guest: Sarara Corva, founder of UNDOO® - free samples for all!
