The importance of visibility and safe spaces for queer people are so important when it comes to building community. With the rise in numbers of LGBTQIA+ individuals relocating to DTLA, having establishments that are a reflection of its community members helps to integrate and include everyone and lays down the foundation for a community that supports one another. Having a queer based cannabis business is the perfect bridge to connect all the different walks of life that make DTLA what it is and what it wants to be.

It is SO important to have safe spaces for our community to come together, grow and flourish. I think if this last year has taught us anything it’s that representation, diversity and inclusion MATTER.

DTLA has always had a safe space for queer people to come and be surrounded by like minded individuals. I support green queen because it’s built on those kinds of queer relationships.

As a trans person it is hard for us to belong to any space let alone thecannabis industry. I would invest my efforts for a space like this to blossom and bring back opportunities for under privileged communities like the lgbtq and people of color. I look forward to seeing this business blossom!

As a transgender individual it is very rare to find businesses that actively support the community let alone dedicate their entire mission to being a safe space to all. Seeing DTLA pushing forward and creating such vital queer spaces is absolutely inspiring and necessary for the queer community.
