Welcome to the NWCannabis.Zone, your local source for Cannabis news.  Since 2012, Washington State has been dilegently working toward the goal of implementing I-502.  The voter approved innitiative that legalizes Marijuana for recreational use.  Washington State is the second to legalize recreational Marijuana use along with Colorado.  It has been a long journey, with many ups, and downs.  There is still a long road ahead, but on Tuesday, July 8, 2014, the first retail stores opened, and made history. One of the problems I discovered was the difficultly in finding news and information.  It was all there, but in order to find it one would have to scour the web, local papers, and other various sources for the most up to date and relevant news.  That is why NWCannabis.Zone was born, with a goal to help bring all the local news and  information to you in one easy to find location.
