State regulators have cleared the first medical-marijuana growing facility in Arkansas to begin cultivating.
The Alcoholic Beverage Control agency inspected Bold Team's Cotton Plant greenhouse last week, making it the first cannabis cultivator approved to begin growing the plant in Arkansas.
"The cultivation process is now underway and we expect to have medicine available to dispensaries in April 2019," the company said in a Friday statement. "We are honored to begin meeting the medical needs of so many Arkansans at this historic moment in our great state."
