Roughly 35,000 Utahns are legally able to purchase medical marijuana and cannabis products thanks to a proposition voted on less than 3 years ago.
The fact Prop 2 even got onto the 2018 ballot was surprising to many. It shocked many more when it passed with a convincing majority. Now, Tim Pickett says it is still amazing to him that he’s making a living helping people get their medical marijuana card.
“It’s not all dreadlocks and Cheech and Chong films and smoke, it’s people who really just, they just need another option and they deserve access to try this,” said Pickett, the owner of Utah Therapeutic Health Center and founder of utahmarijuana.org
While attending medical school at the University of Utah, Pickett says marijuana and cannabis were only discussed in a negative context.
