I'm excited to share that River Remedy has acquired Herbal Alchemy in #Hernando, one of Mississippi’s original dispensaries and a trusted resource for patients since the launch of the program in January 2023. This marks River Remedy’s fourth dispensary acquisition in 18 months as we continue expanding access and elevating the patient experience statewide. From the beginning, Herbal Alchemy has stood out as a top-performing dispensary, consistently delivering exceptional service, product selection, and patient care. We’re proud to have been their very first wholesale shipment when they opened their doors — and we’ve come a long way together since then. What began as a vendor relationship has evolved into a true long-term partnership. We’ve always admired their patient-first approach, knowledgeable staff, and the welcoming, community pharmacy feel they’ve created. We’re excited to double down on what they’ve built by supporting their team’s growth, investing in their mission, and continuing to serve patients across Northwest Mississippi with the same thoughtful guidance and high-quality care they’ve become known for. #mississippi #hernando #desotocounty #mmj #medicalmarijuana #medicalcannabis #cannabis

Such an honor to be highlighted by Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program! It was a wonderful experience that greatly shaped how I think about building my new company, UMI. Every session, every framework, every conversation with my cohort was transformational. To my 10KSB family: I'm so grateful we got to do this together. Now, I'm taking what I learned and putting it into action. UMI has officially partnered with ALPFA Inc - Association of Latino Professionals For America to bring culturally-intelligent AI health coaching to their 100,000+ members. We're launching a pilot delivering personalized holistic protocols for fibroids, PCOS, and endometriosis—conditions that disproportionately impact Latina and Black women. Health inequity IS workforce equity. When women can't show up fully because of unmanaged chronic conditions, everyone loses. We're excited to extend beyond this pilot to other workplaces and professional organizations. If you're interested in supporting the women in your organization to heal hormonally and increase their performance, let's talk.

Today Florida's Office of Medical Marijuana Use published a proposed rule that all future licensees will cheer. Once adopted, Rule 64-4.216, Florida Administrative Code will extend the mandatory timelines to receive authorization to cultivate, process, and dispense products. Under the current timeline, new licensees have 60 days to request cultivation authorization, 120 days for processing, and 180 days for dispensing. The proposed permanent rule extends those to 180, 270, and 365 days respectively. If this proposed rule goes into effect before the newest batch of license awards are finalized, this will give breathing room to Florida's newest 22 licensees. They shouldn't relax, though. Each phase of authorization requires extensive documentation, and every variance from a licensee's application representations requires approval. New and prospective licensees should seize this opportunity to review their applications, identify any updates they will need to make, and obtain all required documentation. Sure, we all know that SOPs are needed. Other, long lead-time items that frequently trip up new Florida licensees are less obvious. Think zoning confirmation, wastewater and potable water documentation, or certificates of occupancy for facilities. The list of required items for each authorization is long. Start now, develop and work through your checklists of required items, and if you need a consult, send me a DM. #floridammj #medicalmarijuana #mmtc #floridacannabis

“7-OH is an emerging public health threat.” - FDA. It comes from kratom and is sold in the kratom section of vape shops and gas stations. The FDA has a great consumer guide on 7-OH. https://lnkd.in/eqjaFFAc
