I Love Growing Marijuana (ILGM) announced in a recent press release, their collaboration with Leafly to launch a US Home Grow Tour (1). The event series plans to allow cannabis cultivators, beginners, and enthusiasts a place to connect and learn some “hands-on education.” Additionally, the event will take place in six cities across the US.
“Our recent survey revealed that 48% of home growers view community as essential—not just for learning, but for finding a sense of belonging,” Ernst Rustenhoven, CEO of ILGM, mentioned in the press release (1). “This insight inspired us to create an immersive in-person experience that goes beyond selling seeds. Our goal is to empower people to cultivate cannabis and build meaningful relationships within the home growing community.”
