Former boxing champ Mike Tyson is entering into the marijuana business.
The athlete-turned-actor has broken ground on cannabis resort Tyson Ranch in California City, Calif., where state officials legalized recreational marijuana on Jan. 1.
Tyson’s ranch will give growers an opportunity to develop various strains of cannabis in addition to conducting research on how marijuana can benefit a person’s health. The resort will also house the Tyson Cultivation School, where people can learn all about growing marijuana, a supply store, extraction facility, edible factory, campgrounds, and an amphitheatre, according to TheBlast.com.
And The Hangover star is looking to support U.S. veterans with his new venture by creating and providing jobs for former service members.
