We stooped by one weekend and were truly amazed with a local volunteer guide who knew everything about the history of the area and whose family was living here for generations. Very interesting visit and priceless artifacts. Highly recommended.

Located in an abandoned Hershey’s factory in Smiths Falls, the Tweed Visitor Centre is more than a window into the world of cannabis - it’s a fascinating look into the past, present and future of our favourite plant. From the moment you arrive to peeking into working grow rooms, your senses will be engaged and your minds opened as you explore the history, science and culture of cannabis. An educational theatre experience challenges preconceptions and highlights society’s changing relationship over 10,000 years. Discover the complexities of the cannabis plant and learn about the role of terpenes, and witness our bean to bar artisanal chocolate production. Finish off your tour with a cup of coffee, browse through our collection of books, and stop by the gift shop for something special to remember us by. We hope this behind-the-scenes tour will broaden your understanding of cannabis and inspire new perspectives.
From entering the parking lot to the end of the tour, we really enjoyed speaking with the employees. Special shout-out to Rebecca ("Blue") and John for the great tour which was well organized, informative and interesting. The factory itself is unbelievable clean! We were greeted in the parking lot by some of the staff on their lunch break. They were all really friendly and smiling. At the end of the tour we milled about in the merchandise area and had nice, informative conversations with Blue and some other female staff. We really liked Blue in particular for her warm, friendly manner. She is definitely a good representative to be the 'Face for Tweed'. Don't ever let her...or John leave!

The real attraction for me is their wonderful homemade fudge. But we drove from Algonquin specifically to find unique gifts - for a new baby and for our house sitter. Mission accomplished! I found a lovely piece of local pottery and an adorable little pair of Native moccasins. Mr. Ferguson has a nice collection of Canadiana. Also love the scented candles. Don’t miss his shop in Maynooth And, for the road, just couldn’t resist that Chewy Praline fudge.

We were disappointed that the Museum was not open at all in winter according to online information. We jumped at the chance to visit when we were told that it was indeed opening during the Dorset Snowball on February 15 2020. There are so many stories and artifacts in such a small place and the volunteer was helpful and enthusiastic. We had a wonderful little visit.
