Ohio’s medical marijuana program is still in its infancy as dispensaries continue to open their doors.

Some around the region are working to make sure the #457SEO gets in on the money that can be made at grow operations, testing facilities, processing facilities and dispensaries. In this episode:

Hemp Industry Daily’s Kristen Nichols discusses the trends she’s seen in other states with medical marijuana programs in terms of economic growth, job opportunities and whether medical marijuana is a gateway to recreational marijuana.

And Meigs County Commissioner Randy Smith sees the medical marijuana program is an opportunity to turn the county’s stigma surrounding the drug into an economic stimulus.
