On Tuesday, July 23 our 50 of our Woodstck and Hudson Valley buds joined us to chat about the impact of weed legalization on the Hudson Valley, a hot topic since the legalization of weed in our neighbor state of Massachusetts.
Panelists for this conversation included:
Andi Novick, New York Small Farm Alliance of Cannabis Growers and Supporters
Dr. Roger Green, MD, FAAP
Gary Chetkof, CEO, Radio Woodstock
Tricia Horst, High Falls Hemp
Paul Litwack, CEO, Woodstock Cannabis Co.
Munchies were provided by Bread Alone.
On site, High Falls Hemp provided samples of their range of their locally grown and produced CBD products.
Prior to the conversation, bergstraesser Strategies provided a “mic moment”. Topics of conversation ranged from where we are with legalization in New York, to medical benefits of CBD and marijuana use, and how legalization could effect the economy.
Since our conversation, New York has taken what some may consider a step toward legalization by way of decriminalization.
