Support your local cannabis growers in BC
British Columbia is known to have a rich history with cannabis where famous cultivars like Pink Kush and God Bud first took root. Boasting an idyllic growing climate, this beautiful province cultivates some of the best bud, which is why BC Cannabis Stores prides itself on putting BC licensed producers first. Take a trip with us in exploring three main growing regions to find out who the local cannabis growers in BC are and where they are located in your community.
Fraser Valley
Nestled in the southwestern region of BC, the Fraser Valley spans from the Cascade Mountain ranges and follows the Fraser River to the Pacific coast. It’s renowned for its sprawling farmlands as it homes some of the most fertile soil in BC. When combined with a mild climate that provides long growing seasons, there is no doubt why cannabis growers love this community.
“The Fraser Valley is a heritage farming region in British Columbia where fruit and vegetables have been grown for over a century. The climate here is mild, without huge temperature swings, and offers plenty of light that plants, like cannabis, love.” - Pure Sunfarms.

Interior
Well-known as a spot for local wineries, the Interior takes pride for their numerous agricultural ventures, now including licensed cannabis producers. This diverse region sits East of the Fraser Valley and encompasses everything inland to the Rocky Mountains bordering Alberta, including the Okanagan, Caribou, and Kootenay communities. The dedicated cultivators, including micro growers, here cherish both the land and the climate, benefiting from sun-drenched, arid summers that complement the network of lakes and rivers that provide a thriving environment to grow cannabis.
“Good clean air and fresh water are the lifelines for our plants. It goes without saying that there’s an abundance of both out here [West Kootenays]– oxygen-rich, pure mountain air abounds and the naturally sweet water we draw from our 20-acre property is steeped with essential minerals and trace elements. These critical and very local ingredients are what give our soil and plants that extra special boost.” – Sweetgrass Cannabis

Vancouver Island
Separated from the mainland, Vancouver Island sits in the most southwestern corner of the province. If you’ve ever visited the Island or if you live there, you are already well-acquainted with its beautiful beaches and fishing community. Its maritime climate of warm, sunny summers with mild winters was a huge draw for many talented legacy and micro growers to grow cannabis that continues to this day.
“We proudly grow all of our cannabis on Salt Spring Island, BC. Our plants bathe in the fresh, salty ocean breezes from the Salish Sea, giving them a special flavour and sticky quality that’s unique to the island’s special climate.” – Good Buds Organic
