This week, we welcome Hilary Clarkson of Old School Farms to the Show. Hilary was raised in New York City, being that NYC was almost a second home for the Grateful Dead; it was only a matter of time until these two worlds collided! She got into her first show at Foxborough 7/2/89 and her life has been on the golden road ever since.
Hilary relocated to California, finally landing in Santa Cruz in the early '90's. She explored her passion for photography, working with Bill Graham Presents, taking photos at many of the Bay Area venues. She eventually found herself growing and cultivating cannabis in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This would become Her life's work. She was approached with a request for FECO (Full Extract Cannabis Oil) to help with a good friend who had Stage 4 breast cancer to help relieve the pain and suffering. Hilary and her partner, Brett, relocated to Maine because of CA's policies regarding cannabis industry. They spend their days growing cannabis and extracting the oil and creating gummies and oil for cancer patients and many others suffering from other conditions They work with St. Judes Children's Research Hospital helping children dealing with cancer and much, much more.
