LGH Dispensary

Matthew Wetzel was first introduced to cannabis oil in 2014 when he was sitting in Froedtert Memorial Hospital’s cafeteria. His son was suffering from seizures, and he stepped away from the hospital room to get a bite to eat. Sanjay Gupta was on CNN, reporting on families that were using cannabis to treat ailments in their children.  

  Wetzel packed up his car and drove to Colorado Springs, Colo., where he was briefly homeless. He was eventually able to bring his then-fiancée and son out to him. This is when he began giving his son cannabidiol, an increasingly popular, non-psychoactive derivative of the cannabis or hemp plant better known by the shorthand CBD.  

 Matthew Wetzel and his fiance Emma Baron  have also become leading advocates for hemp and CBD, working on the grassroots level and with state agencies to form policy at a time when laws are rapidly changing for the hemp plant. Together, they have opened and managed Wisconsin's first Cannabis Dispensary(CBD), Nation's First CBD Hookah Club, Florida's First Rec THC Dispensary  and Smoke Lounge
