That was many years ago, but the last I heard the Green Triangle was still thriving, and supplying several major cannabis dispensary chains with products
Life in the 80s was antiquated compared to what we have these days. When I was a kid, for example, we had four TV stations and that was all. If I wanted to watch a show I had to turn on the TV at the right time, or I would miss it. There were no DVD players or streaming services to watch a full series all at once, you could only watch the few things that were on at the time. We had no cell phones, there was no internet, and the coolest video games we had ever seen were on the Atari. It was a time when it was very easy to find marijuana, although there was not even a discussion about it being made legal at this point. Where I lived there were several prominent local cannabis farmers. Instead of feuding with one another, all the marijuana farmers combined their resources, and the area became known as the “Green Triangle” because it supplied the lion’s share of pot for the whole state. That meant that around my town, cannabis was easy to get and the laws were loosely enforced by the local cops. Just like happens with the modern dispensaries, the local cannabis industry benefited the whole town, and so everyone just accepted it. That was many years ago, but the last I heard the Green Triangle was still thriving, and supplying several major cannabis dispensary chains with products. As a citizen, I’m just happy that cannabis has been decriminalized, so that tax money can be spent on more important things.
