Gretchen Peck writes for Editor & Publisher about Green Mountain Vermont Cannabis News, which is covering the cannabis industry in the state and is adding 35 to 50 new subscribers each week.
Peck writes, “The newsroom team reports on news from the cannabis board, The Cannabis Retailer Association of Vermont and the Vermont Growers Association. They’ve reported on tax revenues, business licensing and the cannabis job market.
