All About The Garden Party and Workshop At Ranchera Familia

The Garden Party launched with focus and on a mission to educate, empower, connect, and share. The workshop and party was created by womxn, for womxn, who wanted to create and offer a safe nurturing space to gather. This workshop and party is a celebration of the divine plant and community.

The event has a requirement for entry aside from the ticket: each attendee must bring a donation. Event organizers have selected a nonprofit to highlight during the event. The required donations are collected and sent to the selected nonprofit.

Ranchera Mami Shares The Garden Party’s Mission

When asked about the “why” of The Garden Party, Ranchera Mami responded: “As the owner of Ranchera Familia, a Latinx/womxn owned company in cannabis, these events/parties/workshops are a must. The events aren’t about me, they are about familia and community. This is about all of us having a seat at the table and supporting each other. It’s along the lines of ‘If you show hard work, we will be your biggest support’.”
