// Definition
A pioneering patient collective in Santa Cruz, California founded by Valerie Corral and Mike Corral that served as a model for compassionate cannabis distribution. Patients were required to participate in plant cultivation as part of their therapeutic care. WAMM lost their land after state and federal raids destroyed their gardens.
// From the Episode
Etienne Fontan based the San Diego Compassion Club on WAMM's model rather than Dennis Peron's SF approach. Mike Corral consistently produced 2-3 kilo outdoor plants with long pre-growing periods. Valerie was described as 'the least profiteering and most selfless of dispensary owners.' John (10) sent her cannabis oil from Switzerland in veterinary ointment tubes. Ethan Russo and Rob Clarke visited the farm together. WAMM became decentralized/mobile after losing their land.
