Customers were lined up Monday morning outside The Artist Tree, a cannabis store that had its grand opening at Palm and Nees avenues.
For many, the opening was long in coming. Although California voters legalized recreational marijuana use in 2016, the city of Fresno delayed granting licenses for dispensaries, which popped up in other Valley locations in the intervening years.
On Monday, GV Wire videographer Jahz Tello toured The Artist Tree, where several customers told him why marijuana helps with their medical issues.
Jahz joined GV Wire in early 2018 as a Video Production Assistant. He comes to us with experience in video editing and production, most recently with Fresno State Athletics. Jahz received a Bachelor’s Degree in Multimedia from Fresno State in 2014. He has a passion for video, music and film.
