Oh….if only my boss would sign off on this! (Since I am my own boss, & kind of a hard ass, I will be going to work & seeing patients in the great city of Aberdeen!)

For those of you who will get to be out & about tomorrow, enjoy the unseasonably warm sunshiny day!

Here you go...

But you have to PROMISE to work at least a little harder next week.

Hello everyone! I am writing to you from sunny Denver, CO where I am attending the Society of Cannabis Clinicians annual educational conference. I am learning LOTS of great information that I will be bringing back to all of you!

At the same time, I am writing with some frustrating news. On Tuesday, October 22, the SD Medical Cannabis Oversight Committee met and had an agenda that was (in my opinion) not appropriate for this committee. The committee chair, Rep Josephine Garcia (R-Watertown) brought in many out of state speakers opposing cannabis, and essentially, once again, attempting to lay the groundwork to abolish the SD Medical Cannabis Program. If you haven’t heard about this, the article in this link will give you more details. As always, I will keep you updated regarding any political happenings that you should be aware of.

I will also soon be posting the November clinic dates. For now, I will list them here to get them out:
—Huron Nov 4 & 5
—Aberdeen Nov 12 & 13
—Watertown Nov 18 & 19
—Mitchell Nov 24 & 25

Have a great weekend everyone! Please reach out if you have any questions!

H**p grows in a season. Trees take decades. And yet for nearly a century, this regenerative crop has been sidelined.

Imagine a world where homes were made from hempcrete, naturally bug-resistant, fire-retardant, and built to last.

It’s not too late to build better. From seed to structure, the future is still green.
