James E. Wagner Cultivation Corporation Expands Compassionate Care Program and Announces New Strains
December 09 2019 - 7:05AM
James E. Wagner Cultivation Corporation (JWC) (TSX: JWCA.V; OTCQX:
JWCAF), is pleased to announce that it is expanding its
compassionate care programs by launching a new initiative designed
to support First Responder patients. The program will provide
eligible patients with a discount benefit on all of JWC’s dried
flower and cannabis oil products.
First responders are professionals who initially respond to
high-stress emergency situations in order to provide treatment or
assistance. This group includes police officers, firefighters,
emergency medical services (EMS), and paramedics. JWC recognizes
the unique trauma-related challenges of First Responders and the
impact this can have on their health. This program is designed to
make medical cannabis more accessible to those that choose to use
it as part of their individual treatment program.
“For me, ensuring cannabis is treated as a safe (when used as
directed) non-toxic and affordable medicine for first responders
and their health care benefits providers and a gateway to better
health, is something I pledge to demonstrate during every
intelligent interaction,” says Vince Lefaive, a 31 year Patrol
Sergeant, now retired with the Durham Regional Police Services. “My
health was absolutely headed for disaster, for me to say I am on
public speaking tours to share the complete healing capabilities
for so many, is my new calling.”
In addition to its current selection of dried flower and oil
products, JWC is pleased to announce introduction of four new
aeroponically-grown cannabis strains to its product collection, as
of today. These new strains are now included in the product
selection available to our medical patients generally and are
included as being available on a compassionate discount basis to
First Responders. The four new strains are:
- King Tut: A heritage strain with a deep
history, featuring deep green buds, boasting a classic earthy
flavour with piney accents. The aroma is predominantly spicy as a
result of the high Caryophyllene content.
- Dark Helmet: Dark Helmet features aromatic
dense round buds that strike the sharpness of fresh citrus on the
nose. The buds of this high-THC strain are a deep green with thick
amber trichomes.
- West Coast Sour Diesel: Large, dense forest
green buds dappled with orange pistils produce a pungent trademark
gasoline aroma with lingering fruity notes. West Coast Sour Diesel
boasts a high THC content.
- Hash Plant: Our Hash Plant strain delivers a
sharp, woody fragrance with a hint of sweetness. Large dense buds
are a muted olive colour with plenty of resin, providing a
tackiness to the touch.
“The general market trend shows that both patients and consumers
are seeking strains featuring a higher level of THC,” says Nathan
Woodworth, President and CEO of JWC. “By adding these strains to
our product collection, we’re not only meeting the diverse needs of
our clients, but we’re also securing our place in the industry as a
top producer.”
JWC is committed to leading the frontier of innovative cannabis
cultivation and distribution excellence. Each strain is grown using
JWC’s proprietary GrowthSTORM™ aeroponic technology, known for
producing a clean, consistent product at scale. JWC is on track to
produce a total of over 35,000 kg of dried cannabis per year once
expansion of its flagship cultivation facility is complete.
