ABOUT US
Sweetgrass Cannabis is a Health Canada licensed micro-cultivator and processor of certified organic cannabis based in the renowned Kootenay region of BC. Our interest in the art of growing high-end flower runs deep and we’ve been hard at work to deliver our products to the upper shelves of the Canadian and international marketplace. We grow our plants in living soil and are stoked to be offering this amazing small batch craft cannabis to discerning connoisseurs and aficionados alike.

LOVE FOR THE CRAFT
Certified by the Fraser Valley Organic Producers Association (FVOPA), Sweetgrass obtained its ‘Micro-cultivation, Micro-processing and Sale for Medical Purposes’ license in May 2020 and we’ve been on the grind ever since. Our newly built 6000 square foot facilities are based in Ymir, BC.
OUR TEAM
putting the ‘we’ in weed
The culture of our small mountain town and the surrounding area is unique. There’s a certain je ne sais quoi in the air. People feel it and are drawn here from all over the world for reasons that are often hard to articulate. Suffice to say there’s no other place quite like the Kootenays and we’re proud to call this place home.
We’ve tapped our local community from day one and have assembled a solid team of dedicated and passionate professionals to help us build and run our business. In turn, we give back to our community through living wage employment opportunities, investment initiatives and town improvement projects. A sense of community is imbued into everything we do at Sweetgrass and we aim to continue this amazing project we’ve created with everyone for many years to come.
Our team currently consists of about 18 highly experienced people who all had their individual journeys working with cannabis before landing their positions with Sweetgrass.
our facilities
high tech organic
Sweetgrass HQ is located in the forest just down the road from where we live. Our first indoor growing and processing facility was built in 2019 and our second facility was completed in early 2021. Complete with full spectrum LED lighting and energy efficient HVAC systems, our 8 grow rooms provide over 4000 square feet of canopy space while the remainder of the facilities include office space, nursery and specialized rooms for drying, curing, processing and packaging.
