SCENES AT A GROW FACILITY IN JESUP RAMPING UP PRODUCTION.
>> FOR CANNABIS TO BE SOLD IN MARYLAND HAS TO BE GROWN AND PROCESSED HERE FOR FACILITIES LIKE BRONCOS. THAT MEANS OUTPUT IS GOING UP TO MEET THE DEMAND. I'M ALSO REALLY
CONFIDENT ABOUT THE ABILITY OF THE OPERATORS TO RISE TO THE CHALLENGE AS THEY'VE RISEN TO THE CHALLENGE OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS.
