Recreational cannabis shops finally opened for business on October 1 to lines of people who were patiently waiting since the crack of dawn. After all, Vermont legislators took fully two years to sign off on retail cannabis sales and more than four years after they'd agreed on personal cultivation and possession.

娱乐性的大麻商店终于在10月1日开门营业,人们从破晓开始就耐心地排队等待。毕竟,佛蒙特州的立法者花了整整两年的时间才批准零售大麻销售,而在同意个人种植和拥有大麻之后,他们花了四年多的时间。

In Burlington on Saturday, the Ceres Collaborative storefront was decorated with banners and balloons. Ceres, which has operated the oldest medical marijuana dispensary in Vermont, is now among one of the state's first recreational weed shops. Ceres is the first vertically-integrated business unit of SLANG Worldwide (OTCQB:SLGWF), a leading global cannabis consumer packaged goods (CPG) company.

周六在伯灵顿,谷神星协作组店面装饰着横幅和气球。Ceres经营着佛蒙特州最古老的医用大麻药房,现在是该州首批休闲大麻商店之一。CERES是第一个垂直整合的业务部门,全球俚语(OTCQB:SLGWF),全球领先的大麻消费品包装(CPG)公司。

"I think people have been in good spirits and are looking forward to this as much as we have. The weather's been beautiful, so we're really excited, we've got a line and people are happy to be here," said Russ Todia, COO of the Ceres Collaborative which has been selling MMJ for a decade.

我认为人们和我们一样精神振奋,期待着这场比赛。天气一直很好,所以我们真的很兴奋,我们排了队,人们很高兴来到这里。Russ Todia,Ceres Collaborative的首席运营官,该公司销售MMJ已有十年之久。

With Vermont-grown weed still in short supply, the trio of retailers that received state licenses in time for Saturday's opening had somewhat limited offerings.

佛蒙特州种植的杂草仍然供不应求,这三家在周六开业前及时拿到了国家许可证的零售商提供的商品有些有限。

Cultivators Are Also Ecstatic

栽培者也欣喜若狂

"It's like Christmas Eve, 11th hour," said Jane Lanza of the Family Tree Hemp and Cannabis Company. "We've been up all night long preparing for this, unwrapping or unraveling of the marketplace here." Family Tree is a 600-plant grow operation in Vermont's Franklin County.

“这就像是平安夜,11个小时,”他说简·兰扎家谱大麻和大麻公司的。“我们整晚都在为这件事做准备,拆开或拆解这里的市场。”家谱是佛蒙特州富兰克林县的一家拥有600株植物的种植园。

Long Wait Has Not Been Cannabis-Less, However

然而,漫长的等待并不是没有大麻的

Vermont has a tradition of tolerance toward marijuana use. Many weed consumers already had their local dealer or have been growing their own cannabis plants, especially since the state allowed limited growing and possession in 2018.

佛蒙特州有容忍大麻使用的传统。许多大麻消费者已经在当地有了经销商,或者一直在种植自己的大麻植物,特别是在2018年该州允许有限的种植和拥有大麻植物之后。

Nevertheless, consumers were still psyched to buy retail weed for the first time.

尽管如此,消费者仍对首次购买零售大麻感到兴奋。

"Things are changing and things are good. It's about time," said Bryan Menard – shopper number one at the Ceres Collaborative on Saturday morning. "It's nice to go to your local market and not go to a back alley."

他说:“情况正在改变,一切都很好。是时候了。”布莱恩·梅纳德-周六上午,Ceres Collaborative的头号购物者。“去你当地的市场,而不是走回头路,这是很好的。”
