SWEET VIRGINIA GROW OP CLOSED??

It sure looks that way. Like KevSil says AG looks like they have lost their grow partner NHR. It was acquired by Curaleaf which owns some large scale grow ops and would not be interested in AG's rinky dink building.

Arizona law requires that a grow op be owned by a licensed dispensary so the claims that the grow only sells wholesale just doesn't make any sense. Why would they sell wholesale when they are required to have a retail outlet?

If you take a look at AG's original PR about it, they say that Natural Herbal Remedies is their grow partner.

The Arizona Secretary of State site lists NHR as a business still but the address it lists is a Swell Farmacy.

https://www.google.com/maps/place/3333+S+Central+Ave,+Phoenix,+AZ+85040/@33.4165512,-112.0734795,3a,89.3y,80.54h,81.48t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1scGFdI5cZAZzYgxOBLA3j3A!2e0!7i16384!8i8192!4m5!3m4!1s0x872b11b8c62a3b0d:0x9b58404e9e58a914!8m2!3d33.416638!4d-112.07318

So yeah, it doesn't make sense that they would keep the Virginia Ave location open when they have a huge grow op on Central Ave. But when you search on the SOS site for Swell, it comes up as inactive and when you search for NHR or Swell in the AZ dispensary list neither one of them are listed.

NHR does have a Facebook page but it looks like it hasn't been updated since 2014 and the address listed is a trading post and not a dispensary on Google maps. There is a phone number listed but I didn't bother calling.

Swell also has a Facebook page with an address and it checks out on Google maps. The http://swellfarmacy.com link now points to curaleaf.

If you look on the AZ SOS site for Curaleaf you will find several entities. Most of them have Swell Management LLC as their management company which points back to principles at the same address in Wakefield MA as NHR. So it looks like NHR may still exist as a company with the grow at 3333 S Central but both NHR and almost all Curaleaf facilities are managed by Swell Management LLC which is a Wakefield MA corp. Someone else can look that up on the MA SOS site.

But I think we have a pretty clear picture of what's going on now. As KevSil stated. All the grow ops and dispensaries are owned by various Curaleaf entities and most of them are managed Swell Management LLC. There is little doubt that the Sweet Virginia grow is completely out of the picture. If AG had managed to get another grow partner they certainly would have put out a PR.

If someone is in the Phoenix area it would be great if they could swing by 2902 W Virginia Ave and see if the lights are still on and if the mail has built up.

You did Bigtime DD! Notice, "PHOENIX, AZ--(Marketwired - Aug22,2017) - Today American Green, Inc. (OTC PINK: ERBB) is very pleased to announce that after nearly two years of hard work by key people engaged in the project, the Company has rekindled a fantastic working relationship with Natural Herbal Remedies, the company's licensed grow partner. American Green and NHR have signed an agreement beneficial to each party designed to be sustainable for years to come.

ERBB pumped hooking back up with needed client Swell Farmacy, emphasing designed to be sustainable for years to come..Hmmmm, ??..Remember, ERBB signed a patent agreement with Tomassi for Zazz machine that had a time expiration as confirmed by Tomassi,a likely renewable option at expiration but since Zazz brand was abandoned, AG found no need to renew at that time...Fast forward to 2017 with Swell deal..Typical slick ERBB wording designed to be sustainable for years to come with likely an initial one year reviewable contract to test the waters..Reputable Curaleaf came into the scene by acquiring Swell, did grand openings in Aug2018, one year later, assessed the 1 year ERBB contract gig and decided to blow it off?..Adios ERBB?...CURL already has at least 11 cultivation sites to handle its near 40 dispenseries.

We're talking about ERBB here..They have a history of Keystone Kops blunders..19 years later and ERBB still searching for viable business strategy..Is it any coincidence that both the Chief Grow Officer and Cultivation Manager disappeared abruptly Aug2018...and access to their public social media went dark?..It's obvious that something BIG happened by ERBB going dark on Grow updates, getting canned by CURL would certainly be BIG enough! It is conditional by Arizona law that ERBB must have a a licensed MJ client signed on to operate Virginia grow..DD, Oh how Sweet it is! Kudos Kev

There have been some pictures posted by Chris Martin showing marijuana still being grown in the facility as of November and December 2018, though I can't say for sure when those pictures were actually taken.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BrWLrTjDnQj/
https://www.instagram.com/p/BqIiijNFQou/

So they are still possibly growing for someone, or just growing for themselves illegally without a dispensary, who knows.

Also, isn't Chris Martin a felon? He's not even supposed to be near those plants, let alone operating the grow facility.
