Since the beginning of time, women have been at the forefront of cannabis: Egyptian women used cannabis-infused suppositories to ease childbirth and uterine pain, Persian women treated migraines in the ninth century, Margaret Mead told the US Senate it should be legal, and Maya Angelou extolled the virtues of the plant.

On the WOW (Woman Owned Weed) Tokeativi-TOUR of the Midwest, Tokeativity went shopping at the fabulous Chicago-based cannabis boutique, Canna Bella Lux, and had the opportunity to sit down with Tiffany Woodman, founder and CEO.
Tiffany’s incredible curation of ethically sourced, canna-fab goods made by people in the BIPOC, LGBTQIA and Women’s communities is stellar! One can shop at Canna Bella Lux knowing that they are actively helping support small businesses and historically marginalized comm

Social media has become a platform for the legal cannabis industry to not only display their brands but create a community revolving around the plant.

One of Oregon’s only cannabis events permitting public consumption tempted crowds this summer with chocolates, kombucha, tinctures and other edibles amid a feel-good vibe. The sold-out Oregon Cannabis Association Summer Fair, July 28 in Portland, showcased the diversity, craftmanship and expertise of the state’s cannabis community, putting names and faces to a growing variety of cannabis brands. Small, family-run businesses were strongly represented among the 54 vendors — growers, processors, ed
