The comedian-turned-cannabis-entrepreneur spent last week in Washington state not just performing blues with his band Nu Jack City, but also championing his brand, Belushi’s Farm, which he launched a decade ago in Oregon. Now operating across 20 states, he hosted a private event with local partners to connect with retail staff and share his mission: cannabis as a tool for healing. From PTSD and chronic pain to anxiety and depression, Belushi believes weed restores joy and enhances life’s simple pleasures. A touching story from a veteran who ditched opioids for cannabis—and found sleep, family, and peace—changed his perspective. For Belushi, every dispensary visit is a chance to witness real, transformative moments.
