TURNERS FALLS Why is this weed different from all other weed?
At 253 Farmacy, the cannabis and cannabis products are kosher. The designation is granted by a Texas rabbi who made it his mission to certify cannabis products as fit for consumption by observant Jews following the death of his young son from brain cancer six years ago.
Meanwhile, 253 Farmacy co-CEO Seth Rutherford says the kosher certification is a signifier of quality, both in methods and in ingredients. He and his partners two investors are Jewish want to differentiate their product by going above and beyond the already exacting regulations of the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission.
