It is our great pleasure to present to you: Homegrown Veterans Association (HVA) in partnership with Veterans Cannabis Coalition (VCC) - Homegrown Cannabis Co. is committed to providing veterans with the resources they need to grow their own cannabis for both medicinal and recreational purposes.

This Veterans Day (11/11/2020), for every 10 CBD White Widow Auto, Haze Auto, or Amnesia Lemon Feminized seeds purchased, Homegrown Cannabis Co. will be donating 1 seed to VCC to help provide veterans with the resources they need to grow cannabis and make their lives easier.

To celebrate the launch of this exciting new partnership, we have an interview with Eric Goepel, the founder, and CEO of Veterans Cannabis Coalition, who graciously sat down for a chat with Nate Hammer to discuss everything from his background in the military, the way veterans are treated after being discharged, his first experiences with cannabis and what he hopes to achieve by partnering with Homegrown!

After serving 7 years in the military, doing numerous tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, Eric Goepel returned home at the age of 25. Like many veterans, Eric suffered from a multitude of ailments commonly associated with PTSD; nightmares, and trouble sleeping being chief among them. After a few months of being home, Eric tried cannabis for the first time and found that it helped him relieve his PTSD and relax. Not content with simply providing himself respite, Eric began to get involved in legislation and fighting for the rights of veterans in Washington. With a particular focus on veterans' rights to medicinal cannabis, Eric Goepel found Veterans Cannabis Coalition alongside fellow Iraq War veteran Bill Ferguson.

Homegrown Cannabis Co. is extremely proud of this partnership and we are looking forward to helping out veterans in any way we can. Look out for more content from VCC members, affiliates, and veterans in the future.
