"I have this love, this infatuation with the color green, and it’s specifically for the plant, not for the profits. That’s something I try to say - you can only love one color green, and I’m a proponent of the plant for sure." In this episode, Payton Weatherford, a Sr. Account Manager at Natural State Medicinals, gets Roots and Reefer co-hosts Rochelle and Wendy fired up for the future of the Arkansas cannabis industry, all while recounting stories from the past of finding his calling in cannabis. Payton’s passion for the plant is as palpable as Arkansas medical marijuana patients’ love for the earthy-yet-sweet indica strain, Blackwater, cultivated by NSM. Also in this episode, Payton takes The Source on a tour of the Natural State Medicinals cultivation facility in White Hall, Arkansas and into the very room where Blackwater flowers in all her green glory.
