A Vernon business has received national recognition from cannabis professionals and companies.

BlueSky Organics Corporation (BSO), manufacturer of specialized soil and nutrient blends for organic cannabis and agriculture production, won the award for ‘Best Growing Media’ at the Grow-up National Cannabis awards. The event was part of Grow-up Conference and Expo in Niagara Falls, Ontario on Nov. 30, with over 3,000 industry personnel taking part.

BSO won “Best Nutrients’ at the 2019 event, with the 2020 event cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
