Vendors and small-scale farmers in Clarendon are being encouraged to organise themselves and take advantage of new licensing arrangements designed to make it easier and more affordable to enter Jamaica’s regulated medicinal cannabis industry.

The call came during a meeting hosted by the Clarendon Ganja Growers group, in partnership with the Ganja Growers and Producers Association of Jamaica (GGPAJ) at Central High School in May Pen, recently.

The meeting saw small farmers receiving guidance on recent legislative changes, licensing opportunities and the benefits of participating in the legal cannabis market.
