After things didn’t go as planned with her partners at said former company, she decided to step up and be the first person in her city to create and host legal cannabis-friendly events located in Kenora, Ontario The stigma around cannabis was still quite high - so, Vyctoria decided that not only was she going to host and help educate guests by including her husband who’ s a phenomenal grower and medical educator but she was also going to support small businesses and other licensed producers(LP’ s)

Within months of opening LOTW connect received their first award for event planning & 3 interview articles LOTW connect was created to build connections between those who support the plant, whether they consume it or not
At each event, guests receive gifts bought from Canadian small businesses and learn about the companies that also graciously agree to sponsor with cannabis related gifts Sponsors then receive social media marketing on all of LOTW connect platforms at no cost, plus Vyctoria would personally purchase an item to help market the company.
After a fantastic first year, LOTW connect created & hosted 6 events from September 23, 2023 - August 10, 2024. All in which supported small businesses, built community & connections to end the cannabis stigma
LOTW connect recently decided to only host 1-2 big events a year in Kenora - this is only due to the fact that Vyctoria - as mentioned above, is pursuing her resource teacher’ s certificate
Please continue to support-follow her on social media @LOTWconnect as she will be hosting giveaways throughout the break Vyctoria would like to thank all of her supporters and sponsors that have made her first year of events possible
