GUEST: Andi Novick, political activist, lawyer, and local farmer, answers all the questions we might have about legally growing and using cannabis, this once forbidden product.Ask your legislators to support small cannabis farmers
Andi, like most thinking people, has always been skeptical of the government's assertions about cannabis. It was said in the 1960's that some day big business would realize that it could make a killing selling weed and it would be made legal. That day has come.
The battle now is to make sure that local growers and small farmers make up the majority of suppliers. Organizing and speaking out is a way to make that happen.
I funny thing happened on the way to legalization. We discovered our nation's racism. We became more away of the evils of big business. And we took a hard look at whether cannabis is actually good for us. Andi made a good point. Like any potent drug, kids should not be using it to get high. Sorry, kids.
