Former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura is launching his personal model of hashish edibles.
Ventura is partnering with Columbia Heights-based Retro Bakery, which is producing hemp-derived THC edibles beneath the Jesse Ventura Farms model.
Ventura, a longtime advocate of legalizing marijuana, testified in favor of the adult-use hashish invoice on the Legislature and was with Gov. Tim Walz when he signed it final 12 months.
Ventura has mentioned the drug helped his spouse Terry get her seizures beneath management and alluded to that in his product launch video.
“Hashish saved my household’s life, and now it’s time for me to return to the hashish world,” he mentioned within the video.
Retro Bakery mentioned the Ventura-branded edibles will likely be accessible for pre-order on Monday, with a launch celebration on the Hook & Ladder in Minneapolis on April 20.
