Membership Fees
Why do we charge a fee? We wish we could afford not too as we appreciate that your medical cannabis is an additional expense and that our fee may deter some. However, our experienced cannabis educators are not funded by a medical services plan and patients rely on their experience for cannabis counselling and education.
