Cannabis in Mass: Delivery straight to your doorstep with Rolling Releaf

Since its state legalization in 2016, cannabis has become a multi-billion dollar industry that helps fuel the Massachusetts economy and tax revenue, while also providing opportunities to address racial equity. Still, despite its popularity, cannabis is heavily regulated and the negative stigma around the drug lingers.

Today on The Common, we take you to Newton, where Devin Alexander is CEO and cofounder of Rolling Releaf, the first cannabis delivery business in the city. We talk to Devin, who went through the Cannabis Control Commission's Social Equity Program, about his experience staring the company, and what he hopes to see change to make the cannabis delivery business more sustainable and inclusive.
