The documentary Lady Buds has been watched by millions of people since its release a couple of years ago. The movie focuses on a group of women farmers who grow cannabis and sell their product. These ladies, who call themselves the “Bud Sisters” work hard but they have a lot of laughs and are clearly proud of their plants. If we could support more people like the ones we meet in Lady Buds, many of whom have gone to prison and had their crops destroyed, the U.S. would be a much better place.
