Swade Cannabis is reigniting its popular canna-culinary series with the return of Best Buds: Toasted Harvest, a fall lineup of infused dining events in October and November. The Missouri-based dispensary network, which operates 11 locations across the state, will showcase collaborations with some of St. Louis\u2019 top culinary talent, blending seasonal flavors with creative cannabis experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Best Buds series has previously featured notable local chefs including Nick Bognar, Logan Ely of Press, and Alex Henry of El Molino. This third installment continues the tradition with three new events focused on autumnal ingredients and imaginative infused pairings. Partners include executive chef Ana Hall of Soul 2 Soul, who will host the first-ever outdoor Best Buds experience; Tim Wiggins of Lazy Tiger, who will incorporate the series into his popular Halloween pop-up, Corpse Reviver; and Andrew Cisernos of Brasas, who will present an infused Peruvian feast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each dinner will utilize High Five\u2019s Stiribles, a chef-curated, cannabis-infused product designed for food and beverages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs we head into our third Best Buds dinner series in St. Louis, we\u2019re thrilled to see the excitement continue to grow,\u201d said Brandon Cavanagh, director of marketing at Swade. \u201cThis season marks our very first outdoor dining experience with executive chef Ana Hall at Urban Buds: City Grown Flowers, which is also our first Best Buds brunch. We\u2019re also excited for our first themed Best Buds experience at Corpse Reviver. Whether guests are coming out to try vibrant Peruvian flavors, Halloween-inspired mocktails and bites, or to eat amongst a sprawling flower farm, we are stoked to continue creating approachable, cannabis-friendly moments that bring people together in memorable ways.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Best Buds: Toasted Harvest series kicks off with chef Ana Hall\u2019s infused brunch at Urban Buds: City Grown Flowers on Sunday, Oct. 12, from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Guests will enjoy farm tours, garden-fresh cocktails, storytelling, and a multi-course infused menu featuring dishes like Bloody Mary deviled eggs, mini BLT croissants, and shrimp n\u2019 biscuits. Tickets are $125<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCollaborating with Urban Buds: City Grown Flowers and Swade is a unique joy,\u201d said Hall. \u201cTogether they inspire me to craft an unforgettable experience where guests leave inspired, delighted, and immersed in lasting memories, unique flavors, and a deeper appreciation for creativity and community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The series continues on Tuesday, Oct. 28, with \u201cCorpse Reviver\u201d at Lazy Tiger, where Tim Wiggins will lead a spooky-themed dinner featuring a welcome mocktail, two infused non-alcoholic cocktails, and a three-course menu. Dishes will include spicy shrimp ceviche, chili-glazed pork belly, and chorizo and broccolini tamales. Two seatings will be offered at 5 p.m. and 7:45 p.m., with tickets priced at $60<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe had such a great time with the first Best Buds that we knew we wanted to do it again,\u201d said Wiggins. \u201cThis round, we\u2019re leaning into spooky, seasonal flavors at Corpse Reviver, showing people how fun, flavorful, and elevated cannabis pairings can be.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rounding out the St. Louis events, chef Andrew Cisneros of Brasas will host an infused Peruvian dinner on Monday, Nov. 10, featuring dishes such as smoky pollo a la brasa, zesty ceviche, and bold, spice-driven infused sauces. More details will be announced soon on Swade and Brasas\u2019 social media channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swade will also bring Best Buds: Toasted Harvest to Kansas City this November, partnering with Fox and Pearl and The Westside Local. The Kansas City series marks Swade\u2019s first infused dining events in the region and follows the company\u2019s recent expansion into five new dispensaries there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
