Peachland finally approves a cannabis store

Published on November 25, 2020 by oz. staff

The last Okanagan cannabis retail holdout has approved its first store.

Peachland council voted at Tuesday’s meeting to approve an application from Budding Creations Cannabis Corp.

“The submitted application package met or exceeded all of the requirements that the policy outlined,” says the district.

Council’s positive recommendation sends the application to the Liquor and Cannabis Regulation Branch for final approval.

It’s owned by a group of local residents, including well-know local businessman Steve Allison.

The store will be located at 5830 Beach Ave., Unit B.

There are now nearly 60 licensed cannabis stores in the Okanagan, though not all are open yet.
