Founder
Meet Samuel Wilson, the visionary Founder of Support Your Local Weed Man. Fueled by the stark realization of the legal cannabis industry's exclusion of black owners, Samuel embarked on a mission to challenge this status quo. Witnessing the enduring impact of the cannabis prohibition on black communities, ignited his determination to create change. In response to the blatant perpetuation of exclusion post-legalization, Samuel established "Support Your Local Weed Man," a platform dedicated to empowering black entrepreneurs in the cannabis space.
