                    Up in smoke: Albert Lea rejects plans for city’s first cannabis dispensary

                    Together Angela Dawson and Harold Robinson run Forty Acres Co-op, a Black-owned farmers collective that aims to give land access to new and emerging farmers of color. Their plants are resin-based cannabis plants, not industrial hemp. They are carefully bred to lower the THC content to meet the legal limit, and to increase the CBD content.

                    Albert Lea denied The Smoking Tree’s license in defiance of state law, risking lawsuits as Minnesota’s cannabis rollout hits local resistance.
