The weekend is over and the winners have been announced. The second Cannabis Cup at the Auto City Speedway in Clio, Michigan this summer (and my first) has drawn to a close. Michigan’s market is exciting — it’s innovative. Despite the recent policy setbacks, recreational legalization is on the horizon in the Great Lake State.

The edibles selection was truly impressive: baked goods, hard candies, pop, and lemonade, chicken wings, pulled pork — a bud buffet served with Midwest hospitality. Revelers spent two days in the sun, split by a Saturday thunderstorm, with some of Michigan’s finest producers and providers, tasting some of their finest products.
