Weed Wars Episode 4

Weed Wars follows Oakland's Harborside Health Center, the nation's largest medicinal cannabis dispensary serving over 90,000 patients. The man behind Harborside is founder and executive director Steve DeAngelo whose mission is to provide the best possible product to his diverse client base of patients while using his business as a megaphone to the rest of the country about the full regulation and taxation of medicinal cannabis.





In addition to DeAngelo and his staff, Weed Wars follows the journey of the plant itself from seed germination to harvesting. Meet the growers and "patient farmers" whose job it is to provide the "medicine" -- the buds -- that will eventually be purchased and used by thousands of clients, many of whom feel their lives have been forever changed by the plant. Due to high demand and reputable quality control, Harborside's reach has now extended to a second location in San Jose.
