A group of people involved in the medical marijuana industry are meeting for a seminar in Sheffield, Massachusetts Saturday. The Cannabis Research and Patient Care Seminar will feature panel discussions focused on how the use of medical marijuana has developed in Massachusetts. Commonwealth voters approved medical marijuana in 2012 and the first dispensary opened this June in Salem. Event organizer Julia Germaine is part of Manna Wellness, a company that has been applying with the state to open a dispensary in Berkshire County. Germaine spoke with WAMC’s Berkshire Bureau Chief Jim Levulis about Saturday’s event.
The event at Race Brooke Lodge runs from 10 to 4 Saturday. People interested in attending can register at the door. Click here for more information.
