IgadI plans to open a marijuana cultivation facility in the former Highland Lumber building in Tabernash. The facility will also include an extraction lab and industrial kitchen for making marijuana-infused products, and a space for retail and medical marijuana sales.

“We were just thrilled with the amount of public support we got from the whole community,” said David Michel, IgadI’s general counsel. “We were really honored with how many people showed up for the tours that we ran and saw for themselves what we were doing and made their decisions based on that rather than just listening to what came from the Grand County rumor mill.”
