Klee Irwin, CEO of Irwin Naturals stated, “For 28 years, we have safely cared for the health of our customers, and we look forward to being the trusted friend on the shelves of Mississippi dispensaries for medical marijuana. The state-of-the-art facility that Clint Patterson and his team have put together in Mississippi and their leading position in the market makes Mockingbird Cannabis the perfect partner as we seek to make Irwin Naturals THC products available in every state it is legal.”

In 2020, Mississippi voters overwhelmingly approved an initiative to legalize marijuana for medical purposes. However, that initiative was struck down by the state’s Supreme Court. The state legislature passed a bill earlier this year to legalize medical marijuana, and it was signed into law by the governor. As of last month, more than 100 dispensaries had been licensed by the state with the expectation that sales will begin by the end of the year. Mockingbird Cannabis is expected to be one of the first companies to have product that is ready to market.
