This will be the first cannabis industry event that my wife has ever attended, and I can’t wait to introduce her to all of the fantastic people that are a part of the chapter. Below is more information about the event, via the event’s Eventbrite page:

Our very first, and much appreciated, sustaining sponsor Barbara Murry of New Approach Accounting will spend a few minutes talking to us about her business and the importance of strong financial management in our industry.

We also welcome Event Sponsor Cascade Botanical. Mary Babitz will share some information about her business and her experience in cannabis.

The ladies from Cannabis Creative Conference coming up on the 29th of July will be giving an update on that event and we will also be updating you on a busy Summer with Women Grow Portland.

The programming for our July event is themed in celebration of the end of cannabis prohibition in Oregon. All of our speakers played very important roles during the Measure 91 campaign and will be sharing their experiences as well as their insight into the cannabis industry and policy here in Oregon.

She was named a co-chair of a joint legislative committee to oversee the implementation of Measure 91 and has been busy at work on the topic in Congress ever since.
