House of the Great Gardener
The House Of The Great Gardener (HOTGG) began life in 2002 when medical marijuana advocate, Mat Beren, started working with Compassion Clubs and medical cannabis dispensaries in his native Canada. Mat was producing medical marijuana for around 600 patients at the Vancouver Island Compassion Society (VICS) when Canadian authorities charged him with cultivation and trafficking. A lengthy legal battle ensued, and Mat was essentially exonerated in 2009 when a judge gave him an absolute discharge. Ever since that historic constitutional verdict, Mat has concentrated all his energy on producing the very best medicinal cannabis, tailored to the needs of the patient.
