A prohibition on weed farmers transporting their own product to dispensaries is among the many challenges the industry is grappling with as it prepares for the start of California's first medical marijuana regulations next year. While some growers believe it will provide them a more reliable pathway to market, others worry it will give too much control to distributors.
So how can California make the new system work? Is there anything to be learned from Colorado (which also permits third-party pot couriers) and Washington (where outside carriers are not allowed), the first states to legalize recreational marijuana?
Board of Equalization members Fiona Ma and George Runner will host a meeting with groups affected by the law — including Meadow and SpeedWeed medical marijuana delivery services, the California Teamsters union, and the California Highway Patrol — 10 a.m. at the board's headquarters on N Street.
