Kaleden-based Green Mountain Health Alliance has received its license for medical sales and cannabis cultivation from Health Canada.

In a release issued on Jan. 31, the company announced its plans to begin production within a few weeks.

“We’ve been preparing for this moment for some time now and we have already pre-sold our entire greenhouse space, half under contract for 12 months and the other half for 24 months,” said Wade Attwood, the company’s president and CEO.

The company is still raising funds to go towards the construction of the second phase of its expansion plan.

The license allows the company to expand into the cannabis industry fully, beyond its existing medical cannabis consulting platform of Greener Life Medical and its previous hemp production.
