Parker said they've decided on an an alternate plan - to renovate the building that already exists on the property. He said this will allow them to open sooner in order to serve Arkansas patients. He also said that they've been keeping up with the timeline of the state's cultivation facilities. "We also want to make sure there’s sufficient products before we open our doors.
