I know of a small MMC that is 3 growers, 50 patients, and top quality meds. All 3 from boulder, all 3 lifelong growers/hippy's, and they paid the licensing fee. This is the type of MMC that we agree should be around I think.
You keep bringing up Barkowitz.. You do know that was a very extreme case right? Most caregivers are smart enough, at least I hope, to stay under federal limits reguardless of state laws.

You also keep bringing up this "pay to play" BS. What ever happened to building your business from the ground up? Isn't that what America is about? "The American Dream"
I dont have 50k to drop for a dispensary that the DEA may come raid anytime they want.
SprngsCaregiver Reviewed by SprngsCaregiver on . CDPHE Caregiver/Patient Limit Confusion More confusion for caregivers. Thank you HB 10-1284! So, can a caregiver currently provide for more than 5 patients or NOT? I can't even imagine how long this rule-making hearing will take. All the caregivers I know have already dropped patients to get to their 5 limit. What a bunch of BS!
