John Rodgers Weed Farmer
John Rodgers is a stonemason in West Glover. He also runs a construction business, plows driveways and rents properties, and for sixteen years he served in the Vermont Legislature in both the House and the Senate. He works seven days a week, and a huge reason he works so hard is so he can hold onto the farm that's been in his family for 200 years. It was a dairy when he was growing up there. Now he's growing weed for Vermont retailers. I've always been really curious about weed culture in Vermont before it was legal, which John knows a thing or two about. And in a time when so many farms are going out in this state, I wanted to talk with someone who's finding creative ways to keep his farm in farming.
