The cannabis products stocked/sold at the store come from government licensed cannabis producers, and are all tested to make sure they are free from pesticides and any other toxic chemicals.
Neighbours of Qualicum Beach is a classy, family-oriented community magazine that helps bring people together in a positive, uplifting publication. We feature a different resident or family on the cover every month and highlight local businesses, community groups and non-profit organizations. Our Sports section celebrates local teams and athletes, and in every issue we share a relevant Arts & Culture article with our readership. Much of the content is collaborative, submitted by the residents themselves. The Calendar of Events pulls together what’s happening for the month and has become a resource for many.
This professional publication is mailed directly to 3,000 homes in our beautiful town every month. Our goal is to connect local businesses to their desired audience in the local area through targeted branding and advertising with our print magazine, plus digital ad campaigns on Google, Facebook and Instagram. We’ll help you build a relationship with our local residents and maintain top of mind awareness. Call us to learn more about our sponsorship packages, and how we can boost your business visibility in Qualicum Beach and across the Oceanside area. That’s right, we also publish the Neighbours of Nanoose Bay and our growing team recently launched the Neighbours of Parksville & French Creek as well.
