-
Root To Rise is a plant-medicine-informed wellness collective focusing on education, community, nervous-system regulation and embodied wellbeing.
We aim to create public learning experiences and wellness events, alongside selected member spaces for current medicinal cannabis patients.
-
At Root To Rise, “plant medicine” primarily refers to medicinal cannabis and the broader relationship people have with the plant, beyond prescriptions and clinical consultations.
We recognise cannabis as something that may sit within medical care while also intersecting with wellbeing, identity, regulation, ritual, community and lived experience.
Root To Rise does not supply cannabis or provide services involving illicit or other controlled substances.
-
Events may include educational workshops, guided discussions, peer-led circles, mindfulness practices, movement, creative activities and other complementary wellness experiences.
Each event will clearly explain its format, intended audience and whether it is public or member-only.
-
Root To Rise offers both public and member-only experiences.
Public workshops, educational events and selected wellness experiences are open to people interested in plant medicine, nervous-system regulation and complementary wellbeing.
Certain cannabis-focused peer spaces and private events are reserved for current medicinal cannabis patients and may require membership.
-
Peer support is based on shared experience, mutual respect and connection. It creates space for people to discuss what they have experienced, what has helped, what remains difficult and what they wish existed within the current system.
Peer support is not medical advice, counselling or crisis care.
-
Root To Rise does not provide medical consultations, prescriptions, medicines or individual medical advice.
We offer community-based education, connection and peer support. We do not provide clinical care or replace your relationship with a qualified health professional. Please direct your medical queries to your clinic/health provider.
-
It depends on the event.
Our public educational workshops and selected wellness events are open to the broader community. Some smaller, cannabis-focused gatherings are reserved for verified members who are current medicinal cannabis patients.
Eligibility will always be clearly stated on the individual event page.
-
Membership is currently being developed. It is intended to provide access to selected patient-only events, smaller peer spaces, member resources and priority access to future programs.
Full inclusions, pricing and eligibility requirements will be published before memberships open.
-
Membership is not yet open.
Root To Rise membership is being developed for medicinal cannabis patients seeking education, connection and experiences beyond the consultation room. Some form of eligibility verification may be required for cannabis-focused member activities.

Cannabis use is not automatically permitted at Root To Rise events. Each event will have its own conditions based on the venue, format and applicable requirements.
