marijuana company buys entire US town to create cannabis friendly municipality

in #cannabis7 years ago

A company which makes cannabis products has bought an entire town in California and plans to turn it into a "destination" for marijuana.

American Green has agreed a deal to buy the town of Nipton for $5m (£3.8m).
The company will own 120 acres of land, which includes a school building, a hotel, mineral baths and a general store.

They also want to power the town with renewable energy.

I wish someone would come do this, but turn it into a libertarian town. That would be amazing. It would be nice if they'd buy the whole state/country instead of just a town as well.
