Medical Cannabis Providers

As long as cannabis remains in Schedule I, most patients will need to find a safe and reliable cannabis supplier.  In the states that have passed medical marijuana/cannabis laws compassion clubs have opened up to provide this medicine to patients.  Cannabis growers/providers need to ensure that the cannabis is grown and harvested under safe and responsible conditions.
