In Michigan, You Can Buy Weed, But Not Seeds During Pandemic

Shore News Network

The sale of marijuana is deemed essential in the State of Michigan during the global coronavirus pandemic, but Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer has declared vegetable seeds and home gardens illegal, according to Michigan State Senator Mike Shirkey.

If you remember, Whitmer was the same governor who blasted Donald J. Trump’s hydroxychloroquine support early on, only to reverse course and beg Trump for some of the national stash.

Now, stores across Michigan, during a pandemic…a food crisis are blocking home gardeners from getting their crops planted, with the governor’s order banning the sale of seeds and home garden equipment.  You would think encouraging people to start their own gardens would be a good thing to lighten the load at the local grocery stores who are out of just about everything these days.
