Hudson Valley Cannabis RollCall: Where the Industry Comes Together

Family, Last week's May 28th Hudson Valley Cannabis Roll Call was one for the books. The room was full of growers, retailers, advocates, entrepreneurs, investors, service providers, curious newcomers, and longtime community builders. Conversations were happening in every corner. Introductions turned into opportunities. Opportunities turned into deals. And people who walked in as strangers left with new connections, new ideas, and in some cases, new business.

That's what Roll Call is all about. Not the speeches. Not the business cards.

The relationships.

In an industry that is still finding its footing, spaces like this matter. We need places for cannabis networking where people can meet face-to-face, share knowledge, exchange resources, solve problems, and build together. Last night reminded us that the Hudson Valley cannabis community is alive, growing, and showing up for one another. To everyone who came out—thank you. Thank you for bringing your energy, your expertise, your curiosity, and your willingness to connect.

We've heard the stories already: New partnerships formed, new clients secured, new collaborations started, resources shared, community strengthened. That's a successful Roll Call.

And if you missed it? Don't make that mistake twice. We'll be back in July with another opportunity to connect with the people who are helping shape the future of cannabis in New York.

In the meantime, we hope many of you will join us at Summer Retreat '26: A Cannabis Collective Event. It's another great opportunity to build relationships, recharge, and spend time with cannabis professionals from across the region. As a benefit of being part of our community, HVCRC members can receive 30% off registration using the code SKV.
