Massachusetts Cannabis Laws Fun Fact
Massachusetts was the first state to CRIMINALIZE marijuana over a century ago. Thank goodness reason took over and legislators figured out that cannabis barrels don’t belong at the bottom of the Boston Harbor. Yes, that’s a bit of historical humor for your reference.
Bay Staters love to get high–annual sales are expected to top a whopping $1.37 billion by 2025. For a state that has only 7800 square land miles (there are a bunch of water miles, too), that’s a lot of weed smoking. In fact, that estimates out to $175,641 per square mile!
Whoa, like their much smaller Northeastern counterpart, Rhode Island, Bay Staters are adding plenty of pot smoke to the atmosphere above their very old state.
Featured Strain for Bay Staters:
In the spirit of the wild grapes the early settlers found on what is now Martha’s Vineyard, we recommend a Medusa Seed Bank original Private Reserve cannabis strain that has a hint of grape in the flavor palette: Tokyo Kong #4.
We think that Nathaniel Currier, who famously depicted the Boston Tea Party in “The Destruction of Tea at Boston Harbor” would have enjoyed painting how Bay Staters reacted when recreational cannabis was legalized.
Remember Bay Staters, Dank Seed = Dank Weed
