Michigan native, former Mandarin and economics double major and experienced marijuana cultivator Daniel Till introduced himself to Plainfield last week shortly after buying 45 acres in town for a proposed outdoor marijuana cultivation business.
During an open forum held at Town Hall last Thursday with 10 residents in attendance, Till pitched his business plan for Farm Plainfield LLC at his new property on 27 Broom St. The property is located next door to an existing marijuana cultivation business at 28 Broom St. called High Plains Farm.

The property, which Till bought for $500,000 from Martin Downey, complies with state laws governing cannabis cultivators with regards to zoning and distance from a school.
