Colorado Celebrates Women in the Industry at the 5th Annual Mother’s High Tea

The kid-friendly event had delicious finger foods and tea, none of which was infused with cannabis.

Tea time for Melanie Rodgers of Millennial Marketing Solutions (L), Kathryn Gentry of Caregivers for Life (M), and Kendra Soderberg of Mammoth Microbes (R).

Tea offerings included: Ginger Peach, Rose Oolong and Elegant Earl Grey.

These women were educating attendees about the CORE network, whose mission is to provide data-driven, evidence-based information on the medical efficacy and risks associated with consumption of cannabis to community members including patients, researchers, and clinicians.

The kid-friendly event had arts and crafts, too. 

Breaking the Grass Ceiling, the new female-centric book by Ashley Picillo and Lauren Devine were given out to the first 100 attendees. The book features interviews with the brightest and most influential women in cannabis.
