CannaBLISS In The Catskills July 2025

Ravens View Genetics brought the weed to the farm at CannaBLISS in the Catskills on July 26-27 by throwing a 2-day festival with Maple Shade Farm in our town of Delhi, New York. With the power of community and the passion of cannabis, the weekend provided a platform for the independent licensed farmers in New York.

“That’s what cannabis is about, right? It’s about all people coming together, sharing some product and having a good time, music, food,” [said Joann Kudrewicz, Ravens View Genetics CEO]. “Things like this offer us the opportunity to come together with others like us and really share in something that’s communal and feels good.”

We had a blast at our very first CannaBLISS in the Catskills festival and learned a lot along the way. The weekend could not have been possible without our amazing, New York-grown farmers: Alchemy Pure, Aster Farms, Blackbird Gardens, Cornucopia Growers, Flamer, Green Spectrums, Ithaca Organics Cannabis Co., Jenny’s, MFNY, Umamii, Supernaturals and our incredible sponsors: Distru, BioTrack, Marino., Mary Magazine, UFO Rolls, Rogue Arena, Lulu Cohen Media, Amish Barn Company, and the Sisters of the Valley! A special thank you to HERbal Woodstock for facilitating deliveries to our festival!

Our Co-Founder and CEO, Joann Kudrewicz, spoke with Radio Catskills after the big weekend to discuss the inaugural event, the New York recreational industry landscape, and more.
