“Everything that we have done in cannabis used to be done in basements of people[‘s homes] and now it’s on a commercial level, third-party lab testing, highly regulated,” she said. “People have long-term careers with benefits here.”
Because it’s so rapidly changing, they have to keep up.
“Nothing we do this year’s going to be the same next year because we learn so much as we go,” she said.
