EVART, Mich. (WXYZ) — Adult-use marijuana has become a big business in the State of Michigan. And December proved to be a record month — with sales topping $135 million.
We have an exclusive look inside Lume cannabis, the fast-growing company that is the largest single-state operator in the country.
On a snowy December day, we made the trip to the small town of Evart, in central Michigan, to visit the cultivation center for Lume cannabis.
The company’s rapid growth is demonstrated through its expansion in this industrial park. A state-of-the-art facility now connects to Lume’s original building – increasing the grow operation to 250,000 square feet.
“All the employees here get medical-grade scrubs,” said Kevin Kuethe.

Strict safety measures are in place for all employees and visitors.
An air shower is mandatory before entering the grow hallways to remove any potentially harmful particles from clothing. Hairnets and face masks are also required in the grow hallways.
“We want everyone to go through that same protocol of cleanliness really to protect the bio-security to increase our chances of having more passed tests and a higher quality product,” Kuethe. [Read More @ WXYZ Detroit]
