CNA Stores, a Haverhill, adult use, veteran owned dispensary to open Tuesday
Hemp farmers, local businesses need grassroots support
Mass hemp farmers and local businesses are asking for support on Budget Amendment 166 "MA Hemp Survive and Thrive", which will allow MDAR licensed products to be sold at Massachusetts medical and adult use dispensaries.
“I’m asking everyone who sees this and lives in Massachusetts to please take a minute to send an email to your state senator.”, Laura Beohner, Co-founder and President of Newburyport based company, The Healing Rose.
Beohner further informs, “We need to make a lot of noise in support of Amendment 166 for it to pass debate on the senate floor. While we’ve had a great response so far, we need to make sure all senators understand how important this is to help small businesses and hemp farms survive and thrive! Thank you to everyone who has reached out with phone calls and/or emails. Keep it up! We can do this!”
Two Malden City Councillors respond to email request for comment, see our previous dispatch, “Malden City Council seeks to pause cannabis retail licensing”
City Councillor Craig Spadafora was not one of them.
“Hey Mike,
I voted NO because of the work many have invested in to get this business-type to Malden. It’s that simple.
In my Inaugural speech as Council President in 2018, I committed to this and within 20 days formed a committee to move the process. I sat in zoning meetings and watched the collaboration and hard work of many. While I do believe in constant review, I do not support a pause. Let’s keep going and keep working. Thank you for asking.
Debbie DeMaria
Councillor At Large”
City Councillor Amanda Linehan, another opposed to pausing cannabis licensing also sent an email offering an opportunity for further comment.
