Cannabis Education | 10.27.20 Growing Forward: Cannabis and New Mexico

    • News

This week, we go back to school on cannabis education. And, we're not just talking about understanding how to get your medical card and how the plant can help alleviate pain and discomfort or even, potentially, help a person kick an addiction to opiates. It also has to do with how much cannabis dispensary employees should know about medical conditions and advising patients on the proper strains and doses to take. We'll walk you through the process from beginning to end and find out what kind of training requirements the experts say there should be in this burgeoning industry. 

(Note: Interviews for Growing Forward were all conducted via Zoom as a part of our COVID-safe practices. Originally our plan was to do interviews in person, but in order to maintain social distancing and to keep everyone involved safe and healthy, we decided to use the technology available to us.)

Episode Music:

Podington Bear - "Good Times"

Blue Dot Sessions - "Neon Drip"

Blue Dot Sessions - "Building the Sled"

Blue Dot Sessions - "Svela Tal"

Christian Bjoerklund - "Hallon"
