Annalise Olson says she still remembers the days when her dad grounded her for smoking weed as a teenager. When she would come back home from hanging out with her high-school friends, Olson says her dad was paranoid that they spent their nights smoking.
Needless to say, she was surprised when her father, Mark Olson, 63, sheepishly told her that he and her stepmom, Leslie Olson, 47, both straitlaced family law attorneys, had launched a small cannabis grow on their family farm while Annalise was working as an illustrator on the East Coast.
“My dad originally did it in secret. He made the decision to build the farm while I was in New York. He basically called me up and said, ‘Hey, I’m doing this,'” she says, laughing.
