The Queen Bee

Introducing Astrid, better known as The Queen Bee—a prominent figure in the cannabis and herbal remedies industries. Whether referred to as Vero, Tre, or simply Astrid, her impact is well-known throughout the Las Cruces community. Long before cannabis legalization, Astrid had established herself as a trusted medicine woman, providing natural remedies and running a successful smoke shop. Now, with over seven years as a local business owner and a few months in the legal cannabis space, she has transformed her smoke shop into a thriving dispensary with ambitious plans for the future.

Astrid’s expertise extends beyond running a business—she has been at the forefront of educating both her clients and the community on the benefits of herbal medicine. In 2015, she earned a Bachelor's degree in Conservation Ecology from New Mexico State University, laying the foundation for her entrepreneurial journey. As a single mother of three, she continues to thrive in her industry, paving the way for a brighter future.

When asked what she wants people to know about her and her shop, Astrid emphasized, “Remind people to shop local—because supporting local matters. Plus, I have the best heady collection in Las Cruces!”
