Arizona Marijuana Caregivers Q & A: (Part 1)

We at Arizona Medical Marijuana Growers Association have received many emails and phone calls regarding Arizona Marijuana Caregivers. Though some of your questions are simple to answer; others we cannot due to the stage the legislative  process is in. The answers are simply undecided. We are working our hardest to keep everyone informed, and stay informed ourselves; and we thought it was time to publish a few of the most popular questions.

Q- What is a caregiver?

A- A caregiver is a medical marijuana patient who cultivates up to 12 marijuana plants for themselves and, in Arizona, up to 5 other  patients with the total maximum of 72 plants. An Arizona marijuana caregiver must have a valid Arizona Medical Marijuana Card,  register, and be approved through the state to become a licensed marijuana caregiver. Once licensed they must comply with all state laws, including dispersing overages. Which leads to another popular question.

Q- What does an Arizona marijuana caregiver do when they harvest more medical marijuana than they can legally possess?

A- They must donate it to another caregiver or dispensary. This has been a problem in other states because there hasn’t been an established method for everyone in the medical marijuana community to communicate. Licensed marijuana caregivers in other states have had law enforcement issues due to having too much medicine on supply, we at AZMMGA are working with you to help alleviate this problem. As a Semi-Public social network now, once the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act is in full effect,  AzGreenCaregivers.com will activate the medical marijuana card holding members private social network. This marijuana social network will allow patients, caregivers, and dispensary owners to personally interact in a professional and easy to access environment without the public eye. All members approved into this private social network will be verified as a valid Arizona medical marijuana card holder.

The third most asked question about an Arizona Marijuana Caregiver is:

Q- Where will  Arizona marijuana caregivers be located?

A- Caregivers will be all over the valley and state. We at Arizona Medical Marijuana Growers Association (AzMMGA) have potential caregivers in Phoenix, Mesa, Scottsdale, Tempe, Glendale, Flagstaff, Prescott, Tucson, Chandler, Gilbert, Showlow, Sedona, and many others. Every city in Arizona has the same medication limitation, so people all over the state will need to work in their community to alleviate the common problems in their area. AzGreenCaregivers is here to help all aspects of the state in communication. Once a member, everyone in the state can communicate on a professional  level to make Arizona’s medical marijuana community as positive and productive as possible.

This is the first series of questions we are answering, but if you have any more please let us know. We are here to help the Arizona medical marijuana community in anyway.
