Conversations in Cannabis: Lauren Fontein, Co-Founder and Chief Compliance Officer of The Artist Tree
Known for blending cannabis with art, The Artist Tree continues its Southern California expansion by opening a new dispensary in Riverside. This marks another major milestone for the brand, bringing its unique gallery-style retail experience — where curated artwork meets premium cannabis — to a fresh audience. The Riverside location promises the same elevated atmosphere, community-focused events, and wide selection of products that have made The Artist Tree a standout across the state, but the city of Riverside has thrown those plans in the air with a moratorium and the next steps are anyone’s guess. Today I’m talking with Lauren Fontein, Co-Founder and Chief Compliance Officer at California based The Artist Tree to discuss the current issues plaguing the city of Riverside. This interview was recorded on January 28th, 2025
All this and more in this episode of Conversations in Cannabis.
