When it comes to bringing together cannabis enthusiasts in a laid-back, fun environment, our recent event, The Wine Down, truly delivered. It was an intimate yet vibrant evening full of laughter, music, friendly competition, and, of course, a little puff-puff-pass (or sips if that was more your style!). We wanted guests—whether they came in a group or solo—to feel like they were spending a night amongst friends while still offering some expert education and conversation from our kind, approachable canna-community. We had good food, good vendors, good games, and good prizes, all led by the incredible DJ Bryan the MC who kept the vibes high… pun intended.
If you missed it, don’t worry! Here’s a look back at some of the night’s highlights, along with a few takeaways on why events like this are important for our growing community.
Highlights from the Night
Local Vendors & Sponsors: Our guests were welcomed into the venue by our local vendors who offered education, services, and products to our community. Curaleaf showcased their new Select line, sharing some stash socks and “Women Love Weed” necklaces; Highly Fulfilled Wellness Med Spa whose doctor was onsite to share tips on how to apply for or renew medical marijuana cards; SeaMoss-Organics brought vitamin and nutrient-packed gummies, gels, juices, and resins. They enhanced our community-focused feel, and we love supporting their outreach and growth. It was delightful to see everyone connecting with these small businesses and discovering new products in a casual setting.
Throughout the night, our guests giggled and mingled between games, smoke breaks in the backyard terrace, all the while sipping some BRĒZ, an alcohol-free social tonic of microdosed cannabis & mushrooms, before returning to the final showdown and enjoying snacks from the culinary geniuses at Gratefuel Cafe, our wonderful venue.
Why Events Like The Wine Down Matter
While we’re always into a little fun, our goals with The Wine Down were also to foster a community where people can come together and feel genuinely connected through shared interests in a place that doesn’t shame you for wherever you fall on the canna-spectrum. Events like The Wine Down help create that space in a way that feels accessible, inviting, educational, fun, and judgment-free.
If you were hesitant to attend but are thinking about the next one, know that we craft them with you, the canna-curious, in mind. It’s a relaxed, welcoming environment that celebrates cannabis (whether you choose to use it at the event or not) and invites you to build connections for friends, business, art, and more!
Cannabis culture is about more than just the plant; it’s about the joy, creativity, and freedom it brings. By incorporating entertaining elements like music and games, we’re able to show that cannabis is as much about community and celebration as it is about wellness and education.
Looking Forward: Join Us Next Time!
The Wine Down was just one of many events we plan to host for the CannaCurious community.
