Here's the set up:
"Larry Parnass, investigations editor for The Berkshire Eagle, is in Colorado reporting on that state’s experience with medical and recreational marijuana. With recreational markets expected to open in Massachusetts next year, Parnass is examining how more than three years of legal sales have changed Colorado."
One if his stops is at the River Rock Cannabis grow facility in North Denver, where he met with owner Norton Arbelaez:
"He opens one door and blinding light spills out. Cannabis plants crowd the room. They sit atop low, wheeled carts, their tops stirred by wall-mounted fans.
A bunch of plants. Well, hundreds of them. I decided that a flower room like this needed to be one of my first stops here in Colorado."
It's a colorful rendering, full of first-person musings, about a scene a lot of Coloradans still don't know much about.
