QUEEN OF BUD | Founder


OUR STORY
​
​
​
OUR VISION was to change lives by heightening connections and elevating everyday experiences. If you change your perspective, you can change anything.
​
Ashley's journey with cannabis began with her own struggle with endometriosis, which led her to discover the plant's healing properties. As she delved deeper into the world of cannabis, she began to see its potential for transforming not just physical health, but mental and spiritual wellbeing as well.
We believe the energies that we receive from crystals are comparable to those we get from cannabis, empowering us to embrace our true selves. Our Founder's philosophy is simple yet profound: if you can change your perception, you can change anything. This mindset has driven her success as one of the first authorized cannabis retailers in Canada, as well as her ongoing efforts to advance the industry and promote positive energy throughout it.
With a passion for innovation and a dedication to pushing boundaries, Ashley sold off our retail locations to focus on the Queen of Bud line of cannabis products now sold across the country. The Queen of Bud brand has become a leading voice in the industry, inspiring others to see cannabis in a new light and embrace the power of perception to create positive change.
​
In March 2024, Ashley sold the brand to High Tide to expand our reach and ensure consistent distribution. While the brand is now under new ownership, our Founder, Ashley Newman, remains deeply involved as the Global Brand Ambassador. Ashley continues to innovate and design each Queen of Bud product with the same passion and dedication that has always defined our brand. We’re excited for you to experience the same high-quality products and heartfelt craftsmanship that have always been at the core of Queen of Bud.
Now, you can find our products across Canna Cabana stores throughout Canada!
