Acres Cannabis, a vertically integrated seed to sale cannabis conglomerate in Las Vegas, Nevada, launches the Underground, a marijuana farmers market on April 20th, 2018. This ground-breaking innovation from Acres, allows America’s top cannabis brands the opportunity to market their products directly to consumers through the Nevada licensing of Acres Dispensary.
Just open on Fridays and Saturdays, consumers will wind their way through a secret tunnel, to enter the Underground, where you will have cultivators and extractors communicate directly with patients and consumers about their products. A permanent legal Marijuana Farmers Market has never been opened in the United States, so the experience for cannabis consumers to talk directly to the cultivators and processors will accentuate the experience.
“Consumers can go experience a lot of traditional dispensaries in Las Vegas, but there’s only one Marijuana Farmers Market” says John Mueller, Managing Partner of Acres Cannabis. Mueller continued, “With Las Vegas being the tourism hub, we believe the Underground will be the national brands launch point, and what better way to legally connect with consumers than selling out of the shipping containers and trunks of Cadillacs.”
Consumers can visit the Underground at Acres Cannabis at 2320 Western Avenue Las Vegas, just a mile west of the Wynn Casino off Sahara. In addition to the Underground, Acres Dispensary offers a full cannabis experience; with open view window of the oils and edibles kitchen, live flower trimming displays and a one of a kind cannabis museum.
Nevada’s adult-use legal marijuana market is projected to generate over $600 million by 2020. While, Nevada’s marijuana industry is still in its infancy, the state has collected over $30 million in tax revenue from more than $195 million in cannabis sales in just six months, much of which has been earmarked to increase funds for public school education.
