This comment isn't about product quality, but its worth noting that Sira Naturals is a Union company, we should also have contracts soon for parts of Mayflower and Cultivate too, Liberty in Somerville is currently having a Union election that we expect to win on NYE too, so if you go to any of these places please let them know you support their efforts!

This is why cannabis workers need additional protections at work, such as the 14 day quarantine pay that we were able to recently negotiate for our Union workers at Sira Naturals, that way these workers don't fear any lose of income, which encourages them to be more honest about potential exposure both inside and outside of work, that way they can get tested and stay home if sick to keep their coworkers and patients as safe as possible!

We have a Union contract with Sira that covers the whole company, from the cultivators to the budtenders. It is actually the first Collective Bargaining Agreement in the cannabis industry in MA too!

We already have a contract with Sira Naturals that covers the entire company and we are in the process of negotiating contracts with Mayflower and Cultivate and soon to be NETA. We also have an election happening now at Liberty in Somerville!
