Gardiner, Maine – A cannabis dispensary called Summit Medical Marijuana recently ran a creative promotion that made their community a better place. The dispensary offered free marijuana to anyone who picked up a full bag of trash from around town and brought it into the shop.
Dennis Meehan, owner of Summit Medical Marijuana in Gardiner, explained his promotion to WCSH6.
“Bring us back the full trash bag, and we give them a gift of cannabis. [I heard of it in] Colorado – there was a town that did this. They had a great response to this. So I was hoping to do the same thing in Maine,” he said.
“Something that caregivers do all across Maine that very few people know about is that they make huge sacrifices every week to help others live a better quality of life,” he added.
Meehan explained that in addition to cleaning up the trash in the community, he wanted to show his neighbors that his business cares about making a difference and that marijuana is not a bad thing.
“It’s profound. The research. There’s a whole world of science out there. If you started the research today, 10 years from now you’d still be doing the research…When you see this plant have an incredibly life changing impact on somebody that has given up on life, or somebody that has been given up on by modern medicine – and you can bring them back to life and give them a quality of life. It doesn’t just affect that patient, it affects every single person in the family,” Meehan explained.
