The Virginia CannaBlossom Festival. (Formally Virginia Commonwealth Cup) Celebrating Virginia, and the best small farmers in the USA. Coming this Summer 2022.
(3)
The Winner of the Cultivators Cup!
The judges liked this for it's dense bud structure and it's aromatic, sticky, smooth, and well cured smoke.
Every judge that tried EmergenC #4 put it at the top of their list.
Congratulations!
This was a difficult cup to pick a winner from. There were some fantastic entries and some people we'd love to be able to add as honorable mentions. For today though, we must leave you with this.
The winner of the Home Growers Cup!
Our judges loved it for it's complex flavor, mild effects, and enjoyable body high. It's the perfect every day bud.
All cup entries were passed out to the judges in the beginning of June. They have been continuously judging flower since then, and have been submitting their scores. The winner will be announced as planned on July 9th and prizes will be granted.
It is with great regret and sadness that we must announce that the CannaBlossom Festival has been canceled.
If you are part of our mailing list, please check your email for full explanation and details.
More information will be released in the upcoming days. Thank you for your support and patience at this time.

Mission statement:
“It’s our challenge. To source, prepare, and serve food with purpose. But that’s not all. As a conscious kitchen we think beyond the food. We’re conscious of our environmental impact and strive to make daily decisions that contribute to the overall well being of the community. “
Check out the article “Best Buds Day” RVAmag.com to learn about our reasons for creating the Virginia CannaBlossom Festival. A heartfelt thank you to for dictating our vision so beautifully, and to for allowing us to share our story with Virginia.
“Greg and I have slightly different visions. They connect, but mine is that other states have messed up, and they’ve let it go really, really corporate,” says Fitzhugh, sole proprietor of Richmond Hydroponics — Virginia’s first cannabis-specific fertilizer company. “And Virginia is there. Everyone is out of state. GLeaf. Columbia Care. They’re not in Virginia. Why are they controlling our w**d? So by doing the cup, we can find the best Virginia grower, and we can highlight them. And we can potentially point them in a direction to being a lead grower somewhere, and say, ‘Hey, this is the best grower in Virginia. They should be respected. And they should be respected in a legal sense.’”
For Powers, educating the public about the legacy of cannabis in Virginia is just as important as celebrating the flower itself. And he sees the event as a way of honoring the cultivators who have been risking their freedom for decades to keep their craft alive and a roof over their heads.
“For me, there’s this big missing chunk of history,” Powers says. “It seems like all of this event, or the majority of it, is new growers, and new laws, and new people and faces. New friendships and all that. And it’s missing this part of honoring those that went before us. That were always growing the plant and always supporting the market.
