Medifarm Producing the first Medicinal Marijuana in Australia
Things are looking up in Australia. Our first cannabis farms are expected to be providing medical marijuana by next year.
Medifarm, located in the Sunshine Coast, opened its doors to reporters recently to show the healthy plants in their facility.
“I know what this plant can do, my neighbour was cured,” Medifarm master grower Steffen Kraushaar said. “So I dedicated my career to use cannabis under legal circumstances and it is really exciting now.”
Just imagine having a grow facility like this!
The cannabis oil produced from the plants at the farm will be used to help Australians with conditions like epilepsy, chronic pain, multiple sclerosis or those needing paediatric care.
If you turn to look at the history books, up until 1937, cannabis was the most widely-prescribed medicine. Up until recently, it has been illegal in Australia.
According to the producers at MediFarm, the 1898 manual, is still the leading manual and the treatment for medical cannabis back then is still the same now.
I will be watching this closely.... Some progress at last in Australia.
Thanks for reading.

It would be interesting to work there. I wonder who decides what strain gets to grow?
