Our Cultivators
The people who cultivate cannabis for the
BCCCS provide top quality medicine at
below-market prices. Our cultivators represent a
compassionate cottage industry.
All BCCCS cultivators are on contract to supply their product
exclusively to us. We maintain enough contracts to ensure a supply
of diverse strains and sufficient quantity in order to meet our
members' needs.
BCCCS cultivators participate in an interview
screening process. The interview allows us to obtain
more information about their cultivation and curing
techniques, cultivation site, and the people
themselves. After a contract is entered into, site inspections
allow us to ensure safety and quality standards and
that additional contract requirements are
also being met. It is also an opportunity to
share cultivation advice and knowledge.
Our cultivators are engaged in civil disobedience,
and risk getting arrested and charged.
Court decisions
in the past reflect an understanding of the right to
access cannabis for medical purposes, and the necessary role of
cultivators in providing medicine to those in need.
We greatly value our relationships with our cultivators, and
their dedication to providing medicine to our
members. They have shown
great generosity by making
donations so that we can
occassionally provide free medicine to our members.
