This is what Mockingbird looked like in January and then in February. This is the facility today. Employees are on site and work is underway for medical marijuana.
“Our facility is almost complete. We have plants in the rooms,” Clint Patterson said. “We have four flower rooms that are fully in flower right now. Our first harvest will be, it’s planned to be October 11th. And so once we start drying and curing that material, we’ll have product ready for the state of Mississippi in, around November 1st.”
Clint Patterson is the Mockingbird CEO. The former prosecutor says they have done a great deal of work to make sure they are ready to provide top-grade products to dispensaries.
“We feel like this facility is a pharmaceutical grade facility. And so we’ve taken great pains and spent the extra money to make sure that we have everything covered that we don’t bring in any kind of outside pollutants, any disease, any mold, any mildew that can affect patients,” Patterson said.
Mockingbird is also working with Nandy’s Candies…
