Tucked away on 53 acres of land in a small Bristol County town, a million-square-foot facility is being built to meet the growing demand for marijuana in Massachusetts.

The property - set to open this fall - will feature a state-of-the-art medical cannabis cultivation facility known as the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center.

The center will be one of the largest cannabis cultivation facilities in the United States and on the forefront of emerging technologies in the field.

The first phase on construction, which will begin in March, includes a 130,000 square-foot facility for the cultivation and processing of marijuana plants and a 30,000 space for the research and development of marijuana goods, from infused products to plant science.

1. Sadly, I believe Jeffy Boy Sessions is going to go wild on pot!

Hope I am wrong, but these evil little bastards cannot wait to screw an entire industry and the people who need marijuana for medication. What good is all the power if you can't really use it!

4. I hope this won't be allowed in my state.

We just passed a recreational use marijuana referendum, but the details regarding how it will be implemented are unclear.

One thing I don't want is large agribusiness' springing up all over the place. I'd like people to be able to make a little extra money by growing their own and selling it... (with a permit or license of some sort).
