Oneida County Executive Anthony Picente toured the Brightwaters Farms facility in North Utica today.

Brightwaters has applied for a license to grow marijuana for New York's new medical marijuana program.  They have a state-of-the-art climate-controlled greenhouse at their facility on Herkimer Road.

The state is expected to issue five licenses for medical marijuana growing operations by the end July.
