SHEFFIELD A public hearing for a cannabis farm s proposal on Polikoff Road has to be held again, since at least one resident attended the Feb. 24 hearing in person
SHEFFIELD â Amid fierce opposition and grilling from residents late into the night, the townâs Planning Board Wednesday delayed a decision on a permit for an outdoor cannabis farm in Ashley Falls.
The board moved its teleconferenced discussion and possible vote to March 10 for Wiseacre Farmâs plan to grow 95,000 square feet of marijuana crops at 286 Polikoff Road for wholesale distribution. The 21-acre parcel lies in the general business and rural districts.
The board heard a slew of pleas to reject the project.
Jon Piasecki, co-owner with Anthony Bowen, said the Ashley Falls farm would be one of the largest outdoor cannabis-cultivation ventures in Massachusetts. It would employ five to 12 workers, with the most during harvest season months.
