Homegrown Supplies Inc. is set to celebrate its Grand Opening and 1-Year Anniversary with a cannabis-friendly event this weekend.

Almost a year ago, Homegrown Supplies co-owners Charlie Colon and Scott Morken founded the retail store in St. Charles. Now, a year later, Homegrown Supplies co-owners Charlie Colon and Scott Morken are set to celebrate its official Grand Opening and 1-Year Anniversary.

The event is set for Sunday, May 29, and will host food trucks, artists, clones, genetics, store discounts, giveaways, and more from 12-6 p.m. Homegrown Supplies is located at 1519 East Main St., Suite 300.

The store’s hours are from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekends. Homegrown Supplies’ mission is to spread the love of gardening with customers, supply them with the best indoor and outdoor grow supplies, and help them grow the best plants from the comfort of their home.

Along with its website, Homegrown Supplies can be found on Facebook and Instagram @homegrownsuppliesinc. If anyone has questions, please contact Homegrown Supplies at 630-940-2910 or scott@homegrownsuppliesinc.com.

“We take pride in what we do,” the co-owners stated on Homegrown Supplies’ website. “We want to help foster a community of growers by sharing our knowledge and helping you succeed, no matter what stage you are at or what plant you grow.”

Homegrown Supplies also employs three other works: Richelle Colon, Nick, and Kaden.
