Karli Warner and Erin Gore the dynamic duo behind Garden Society, the popular female-focused edibles brand in California, are this week’s guests on The Green Rush. The Garden Society is an organization that was founded by women for women and together they have created quality infused confections and sun-grown flower pre-rolls made from responsibly sourced, sustainable ingredients.
Anne was flying solo for this conversation with Karli and Erin as they discuss the origins of their brand and products, the leadership role they are taking in making sure that women have an equal opportunity in the cannabis space and how their “Garden Parties” are helping to normalize and educate cannabis for nascent users.
Additionally, this episode was recorded a few weeks back just as the quarantine was getting into full swing – so they also discuss how the COVID-19 crisis has affected their business and impacted their conversations with investors.
So don’t sit back, lean forward and enjoy!
