if your want to really do something , i suggest not a dispensary type of setting for the reason of the in your face to the Dea. The laws of Ca states of a card issue program for each county, even thou most don't get along with this. But hell, you have ss, dr lic, ect don't you? Ca has statewide medical marijuana identification card program that is honored in all counties of their state..thru your county health and safety department. But not all counties are with this , and they are fighing the laws that allows safe access .
a small coop is the way to go. especially if you have space to grow for some patients in your area. We have one in our area. Paitents whom grow together in unity saves time and energy on the big time scoring medicine and it depends upon what your doing, either inside or outside. The laws, if your have read them explains everything . What is allowed and what they won't allow. But our civil rights are invaded by the fact that the Federal won't accept this, to me is a contridiction to their own laws when they allow a federal stamp to some but not to all. you want to open a coop, go for it... not a dispensary for that will take you down , but a small coop, with a ca recomendation will also send you into prove that your a patent in the legal system. But if you have a card, it allows you to grow, per ther state of ca. even thou Prop 215 has been around, sb420 says it all. Your protected as long as you have that card and doing what is allowed holding that card. read the laws .... thats all i can say then you will know what is expected . i understand that many will disagree on the card program, but what the heck, it works. If they come to your door, they have been shown the card, you have the guidlines of product your allow to have per your dr recomendation, they must call the number on the card, once its checked they must leave. But do not let them into the house/. Let them check it first... it works. they must follow the laws of the state. But only grow what is allowed, no more.. reinbursment is also allowed pe sb420. like i said.. more coops need to open to care for our own safely. unity amoungst patient, not a dispensing retail outlet but only not for profit. So if i have to jump and get the card to safely grow i will. What is one more card? credit cards, social security cards, drivers licence, medical cards, they all have our information.. Cameras on every light, cell phones buged. Really, if they want us, they know where to find us....
