In an unincorporated area outside Raymond stands what its chief executive claims will be the largest medical marijuana growing and manufacturing operation in Mississippi, if not the southeastern United States.
by Will Stribling, Mississippi Today May 18, 2022 The 163,000-square-foot behemoth once housed the state's Department of Revenue but is now the home of Mockingbird Cannabis, a $30 million bet on the state's medical marijuana industry.

It will be operated by more than 200 employees, with the lowest paid workers making $17 per hour.
