This Sunday is Mother’s Day. So, we’re turning our attention to a Grand Rapids entrepreneur who says his business wouldn’t be what it is without his mom. What do they sell? Cannabis! Today, we’re talking Casey Kornoelje and his mom, Patti Kornoelje, on running a business during the pandemic, cannabis stigma, and the social equity program that made the store possible.

GUESTS:

Casey Kornoelje, owner of Pharmhouse Wellness

Patti Kornoelje, delivery driver and cook for Pharmhouse Wellness
