Tweed, Canada's top cannabis producer, is excited to announce the June 23rd opening of its Fort Qu'Appelle retail location.

Recreational cannabis is new to many consumers but we've been pioneers as a medical producer for years. Our teams are experts in everything related to cannabis and are eager to help suggest strains and educate on the different ways to consume cannabis.

As we lead up to our official grand opening celebration on Canada Day long weekend, we want to invite you, our local media friends, to join us on Sunday, June 23rd or Monday June 24th for both a first-hand look at the store and a one-on-one introduction to the Tweed brand, our products, our presence in your city and our commitment to local community involvement.

The official grand opening event will take place on Canada Day long weekend including June 29, 30 and July 1. The event will include:

• Celebrations and goodies for guests
• 1 on 1 with education ambassadors
• Swag giveaways

This branch of Tweed is proud to be the first store in Fort Qu'Appelle and the seventh Tweed store in the province of Saskatchewan.
