Newly licensed Western New York marijuana growers anxious to be on forefront of state's cannabis market

Kerry Trammel and Michael Yager are excited to be at the forefront of New York's recreational cannabis industry.

But they're also nervous, since the market hasn't been established yet and they're not sure exactly what to expect. 

Trammel, owner of The Releaf Market in Jamestown, and Yager, one of the owners of Yager Farms in Eden, are among the 52 growers granted the first licenses to cultivate adult-use recreational marijuana in the state.

Wheatfield Gardens in Wheatfield is the other local business that was awarded a license from the state Office of Cannabis Management.
