 The first business of this type on the Central Peninsula and the fourth in Alaska. Owner Randy Wells, a self-proclaimed entrepreneur, first visited Alaska in Dutch Harbor and later opened a fishing charter in Seward. According to Wells, his interest in cannabis was recreational when he was younger but became a business interest in the early 2000s when the state of Alaska started moving toward the legalization of recreational sales. That's when he and his wife made Seward their full-time residence. Only full-time residents of the state may own any portion of the cannabis industry licensing.
