David Cohlmeyer

For over 20-years, David Cohlmeyer was the Governor General Award-winning producer of high-quality vegetables for Canada’s most acclaimed chefs. He accomplished this by learning what these plants need to fully express their flavour and nutrients. Growing premium cannabis is no different. He will share the elements of developing healthy soil, selecting preferred genetics, following optimal production practices, and developing effective marketing.

David has a B.S. in Industrial Management from Purdue University and years of corporate business consulting. With this combination, he knows how to incorporate full costs of production with agronomic, market, and labour requirements for devising profitable business plans. This scenario of combining indoor and outdoor production is a result of David’s unique experiences.
