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.
