San Luis Obispo Cannabis Growers Alliance Formed in California

LiveWire Ergogenics Inc. — a company focused on acquiring, managing, and licensing special purpose real estate properties conducive to producing high-quality, handcrafted, and organically grown cannabis products for medical and recreational adult-use in California — has formed the San Luis Obispo Cannabis Growers Alliance.

After over two years of complex and sometimes confusing experiences, coupled with a mixture of support and resistance, Livewire has formed the San Luis Obispo Growers Alliance. The group provides a platform to share experiences, encourage discussion, and create an environment of positive cooperation between Growers and the local communities they call home. SLO Grow aims to advocate sensible cannabis oversight and impact policy for the California central coast at the local, community and state levels.

The alliance is a cannabis advocacy group located in the San Luis Obispo area dedicated to the highest ethical, legal and environmental standards for the region’s cannabis cultivation operations. The alliance is administered, coordinated and moderated by Lisa Bugrova, the newly appointed executive director of the SLO Grow Alliance.

“Along with supporting our alliance members with policy advocacy, project-level support, and compliance guidance, SLO Grow aims to bridge the understanding between growers, regulators, conventional agriculture, and ag-supportive businesses in the area,” said Bugrova. “SLO Grow aims to build a robust advocacy network for the entire industry to encourage the development of local enforcement oversight to one of trust with the industry’s legal operators. Instead of addressing duplicating efforts for different authority regulations, operators should be able to rely more on the comprehensive regulatory framework created by the State for licensing and tracking throughout California. We are committed to ensuring that the Central Coast Growers become a united force and will be able to combine efforts with other growers throughout California to make a positive and lasting impact for their operations and surrounding communities.”

SLO Grow will advocate for the ethical and responsible growth of the legal cannabis industry and function as a voice for the rights of the cannabis supply chain in San Luis Obispo, California. The Alliance consists of dedicated members who have a passion for advocating for sensible cannabis oversight and policy. An essential focus of the organization is to educate the public in general and the surrounding communities regarding the science behind medicine and the positive aspects of the industry – including environmental, economic, and sociological impact. At the same time, Slo Grow will connect key stakeholders in the cannabis community throughout the State of California to encourage cooperative communication and the highest levels of professionalism within the legal cannabis industry.
