With Worcester County poised to be the hot spot for the legal marijuana market, one group hopes to help educate the 16 companies looking to do business in the county.
Cannabis Community Care and Research Network, based in Somerville, is holding an event at Mechanics Hall on Thursday night to educate companies on best cultivation and extraction practices.
The event will feature eight speakers, including publicly traded medical cannabis facility designer AmeriCann’s CEO Tim Keough and other industry experts. Event topics include sustainable cultivation standards and operating procedures, extraction methods, sustainable energy use, indoor vs. outdoor growing and lighting and HVAC systems.
The event starts at 6 p.m., and tickets are $40.

Sira Naturals, which cultivates marijuana in a Milford facility, was awarded the state's first cultivation license earlier this month.
