Cheech Marin talks Cheech & Chong Cannabis Company partnership with Southern Sky Brands
SUMMARY: People often associate the herb with certain individuals due to their long history of involvement in various forms of media. When deciding to start a business in Mississippi, the legality and potential health benefits were contributing factors. The use of CBD has become widespread because it is effective. While some may view it as recreational, it has personally helped alleviate chronic pain, especially after knee replacements, without the negative effects of opioids. Despite some skepticism, having a bank account and the ability to manufacture and distribute nationwide would make the industry more accessible and cost-effective for everyone.
Cheech and Chong’s Cannabis Co., the renowned pioneers of the cannabis
industry, and Southern Sky Brands, a leading provider of medical cannabis products, are excited to
announce a strategic partnership aimed at expanding access to high-quality medical cannabis products for
the patients of Mississippi.
