Berkeley activists started a marijuana dispensary 25 years ago. Today, there's none older in the nation
Briefly

"It was founded by Jim McClelland, who coined the term Oaksterdam, alongside Don Duncan and Debby Goldsberry, aiming to promote medical marijuana use in Berkeley."
"Etienne Fontan noted that naming it 'Berkeley Patients Group' was strategic to elicit empathy from jurors in case of legal battles surrounding medical marijuana."
"The dispensary will celebrate its 25th anniversary this year, marking a milestone in providing medical marijuana to patients since 1999."
