Classic City Hemp Leaves Town Before New Laws Hit

 

Georgia Senate Bill 494 takes full effect Oct. 1, placing several new restrictions on the production and distribution of hemp in Georgia. Grady Newsource reporter Christian Andrade went to local hemp shops in Athens to find out how businesses and customers will be affected.
