The Queer Cannabis Club is the first consortium of cannabis companies led by members of the LGBTQ+ community. Each bonus episode, Different Leaf shines a light on another one of the fascinating queer leaders making waves in the cannabis industry. This episode, host Brit Smith talks to Andrea Brooks, CEO of SAVA, the leading online marketplace for curated cannabis delivery in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Andrea knew her community would prefer a curated cannabis shopping experience, so SAVA was designed to allow customers to shop based on their values. Prefer to buy your weed from women? Want to support small local BIPOC growers? SAVA's digital shelves are only stocked with diverse, locally-owned companies, many of which use sustainable packaging and give back to specific communities. By empowering Bay Area residents to be more conscious consumers, Andrea is bringing SAVA's vision of nurturing diversity in cannabis to life. Learn more at getsava.com
