Minnesota constitution might give homegrowers the right to sell their weed without a license

An early 20th century amendment to the Minnesota constitution gives people the right to sell the produce from their garden or farm. It was originally written to protect roadside produce stands and farmers markets. A new lawsuit has been filed to have it apply to weed. The language of the amendment is very simple and clear: “No license required to peddle. Any person may sell or peddle the products of the farm or garden occupied and cultivated by him without obtaining a license therefor.”

If the state wants to prohibit cannabis farmers markets or person to person sales by legal homegrowers it might require a constitutional amendment.

In the cannabis caucus in the Minnesota legislature there are a lot of legislators who consume themselves. They tried to write the most pro user, pro homegrower version of legalization they thought they could get away with. This may be an Easter egg that they knew homegrowers would eventually find. They have a history of doing this. They made it legal to smoke in public anywhere you can smoke cigarettes without anyone really realizing that was in the bill, and they got the Republicans to support legalizing edibles and thc beverages three years ago by convincing them it was just a regulation of delta 8.

I want a link or proof you can smoke in public…GTFO! The law specifically states that you can’t. Not :sob: bitch at all. I read it in plain English…I’d like to see a link. This is a old post of yours maybe it was that way in the beginning…I’d love to see proof

If you look on the final draft it’s in there where you can smoke in public. Your proof is in the bill, but you’re going to have to take the time and read🤷‍♂️. And if you cant find it putting the time into researching, I’ll show you.

You can but it has to be your curtilage or yard…events with permits…places like smoke n toke clubs…instances like these…not just walking down the street or sidewalk. It will be a 300$ fine…

From the city of Minneapolis tourism and marketing website:

Cannabis can be used by people 21 and older on private property that is not accessible to the public (if permitted by the owner), private residences and at places with approved licenses or an event permit (however, no licenses or event permits are available at this time). Smoking or vaping cannabis is allowed outside anywhere it isn’t prohibited by the Minnesota Clean Indoor Air Act, such as in a park, on a sidewalk or outside a restaurant or bar, unless the City of Minneapolis passes an ordinance prohibiting it (which it has not).

The state law allows individual municipalities to prohibit it, but it isnt banned statewide. Maybe that is the source of confusion.

Municipalities can’t ban you smoking in your yard. They can write in their law to have a fence or something that blocks the view of what you’re doing…
