Dispensary, CA: Ep. 73 Sabrina Fendrick & Victor Pinho, Berkeley Patients Group

http://cecono.me twitter.com/canneconomy facebook.com/canneconomy In this episode, we sit down with both Sabrina Fendrick and Victor Pinho from the Berkeley Patients Group. The Berkeley Patients Group is a well known and respected name in the cannabis industry, as the longest continuously running medical cannabis dispensary. It was founded by activists Jim McClellan and Debby Goldsberry, as a way to provide quality access to quality medicine for patients, and to this day the core mission remains the same. Sabrina and Victor tell us a little bit about how they wound up at BPG, give us a tour of their facility, and catch us up on everything the BPG has been working on as California looks poised to consider new regulations for their medical marijuana market. "The cannabis industry is very complex, it's unlike any other, and you can't have one agency regulating... the retail side dispensaries also regulating the agricultural/cultivations side, because they know nothing about how the cultivation of cannabis works." "The tentpole history is basically that Jim McClellan, Debby [Goldsberry], and a few other activists came together to provide medicine, and quality access to medicine. And that's where this place shot off from, and ever since then, we've kept that quality at the focus." "The idea behind Berkeley patients Group that we carry through today, is being in compliance - the state regulatory structure that we lack here in California is what's keeping us in the crosshairs." "Six years ago, when I first started, I don't think I nor anybody else actually thought you would see legal retail marijuana in the United States." "We were the crazy ones, right? And here we are a decade later, and we've got the support of everyone in politics, nowadays it's political suicide to not support our cause."
