I grew up around cannabis and a huge part of why I got into the industry to begin with, was to destigmatize the cannabis industry and those using cannabis.

I started working in the industry in 2005, when I started managing a head shop in Penticton. This is where my interest in hemp, cannabis and cannabis accessories became my life long passion. After 4 years working at the head shop, I decided I needed a change and to get away from small city living. Off to Vancouver I went! In Vancouver, I started doing sales for one of the world's largest manufacturers and distributors of cannabis accessories. Shortly after, I became sales manager, built their sales department and did world wide sales, worked many trade shows as vendor and purchaser and exhibited at the world's largest cannabis expo, Spannabis, in Barcelona. I helped with their production selection and development and was part of the team that got Red Eye Tek, Ross' Gold Glass, Lit Silicone, Irie and the Officially Licensed Cheech and Chong Glass line to market. After nearly a decade of working in manufacturing and distribution, I decided it was time for me to follow my life long dream of starting my own business.

In 2019, my husband(Gord) and I put our life savings on the line and spent the next few months looking for our ideal retail location for our accessory and lifestyle store. In March 2019, we secured a lease and a small crew of us spent the next 6 months completing renovations, creating my "dream" space. In September 2019, we opened our doors. We were open for 6 months before getting hit with a pandemic. We are very lucky that we created such a welcoming space, with a diverse product selection. We are so incredibly thankful that we built a solid, loyal customer base in the first 6 months that kept us going through the next few months, when we had our doors closed. We opened back up full time in June and it's been non-stop ever since. We have a huge selection of smoking accessories, clothing, candles, gift & novelties, cosmetics, crystals, books etc! We also work closely with RAW Rolling Papers and are listed as a RAWthentic Retailer in Canada. When you shop at One Love Hemp Co., you know 100% that you're getting authentic RAW products.You can visit us at our brick & mortar location or we also offer shipping all across North America and offer free shipping Canada wide over $100.
