I think it's very important to always remember where this plant started and the grassroots community that got this plant to where we are today, because without those people we wouldn't be here today.
Ever wondered how cannabis legalization affects the recovery community? In this episode of 'Get in the Herd', hosts John Shinholser and Nathan Mitchell sit down with Jenn Michelle Pedini, the Executive Director of Virginia NORML, to tackle this very question. Pedini dives into the nuances of Virginia's adult-use cannabis legalization, shedding light on its implications for those in recovery.
