… the counties in the Emerald Triangle of Northern California are greatly concerned regarding the impact on their major cash crop. Emergency meetings have been held in this region to discuss their economic future. The consensus of opinion is to create ’420′ friendly resorts similar to the vineyards and wineries in Sonoma and Napa counties. Michael Lawrence, the founder National Canna Corp, a visionary that realized this trend more than 1 year ago began developing a ’420′ golf course, and lake front resorts…[Marijuana, Inc] intends to be the dominant developer, spearheading a variety of 420 resorts in Humboldt, Mendocino, Lake, Sonoma and Trinity counties. These 420 resorts will include cannabis gardens with hundreds of different strains, accommodations, restaurants, tours of the local areas, including legal cultivation models and 420 educational programs, with other traditional tourist attractions and events.”

Great! More big money coming to our hometowns to capitalize on our hard earned reputations. Why should the locals have a chance to develop their own legal economy? Lets bring in Oaksterdam and Harborside next to be the only ones allowed to legally cultivate. The locals don't want to stay in the Marijuana industry right. That's why we voted in the Tax Cannabis Act. We wanted it to be legal so we could buy it from large corporations and stay at their 420 golf course resorts.

This had to be expected but there may be niches created in specialty strains that the big farms wont handle. Just like there are in fruits and vegetables. There will always be an opportunity you will just have to be creative

Another thing to consider is it will never be fully legal till big business can make big money on it, Thats all the suits care about

junior_grower · 05-30-2010, 10:22 PM

Private Joker · 05-31-2010, 06:47 AM

you have to figure that once it is legal, the equivalent of anheiser bush and coors will jump in the game. My goal is to try and be the best local micro brew...

I don't understand, such resorts or pro-cannabis businesses exist already or will soon? Or only once it is legalized? Either way big business should stay out of cannabis
