Dreams of a medical marijuana production facility in Truro are one step closer to fruition.
The Truro Herbal Co. (THC) has awarded a contract to Lindsay's Construction of Dartmouth for the development of a state-of-the-art cannabis production facility in Truro.
The company says construction of the 20,000-square-foot facility will begin this month on a 6.3-acre lot in the Truro Industrial Park.
"We are working toward an aggressive construction schedule to see completion by early 2018, and are confident in Lindsay's ability to deliver within our timelines," said Ron Meech, who oversees THC's construction committee, in a news release.
After the facility is built, Health Canada will need to conduct an inspection of the building before THC can become a licensed producer of medical cannabis in Nova Scotia.
While this would be the first such facility in Nova Scotia, it is far from the first in Atlantic Canada, with Moncton's Organigram and Canada's Island Garden in P.E.I. already in the market.
THC also added to its current round of financing, raising to date $4.7 million in new cash and commitments.
