TUCSON, AZ / ACCESSWIRE / July 19, 2017 / WEED, Inc. (OTC PINK: BUDZ) (the "Company" or "WEED"), a current non-SEC reporting company, announced that its recent acquisition, Sangre AT, LLC (dba "Sangre AgroTech"), plans to open the Sangre Bioscience Center in La Veta, Colorado. WEED has an agreement to purchase ~4 acres on State Highway 12 for $1,000,000, with the initial closing to be July 26, 2017. Under the purchase agreement, WEED, Inc. will pay $500,000 cash down plus 25,000 shares of stock on July 26, 2017, with the balance to be paid off in four 6-month payments over next two years. The property includes a 10,000 sq. ft. building which will be home to the Sangre Bioscience Center, where the Sangre scientific staff will continue its 5-year Cannabis Genomic Study. Also on the property are a 4,000 sq. ft. building which the companies plan to house Sangre AgroTech's analytical and extraction laboratories, and a 3,500 sq. ft. facility where the companies plan to house a corporate office center. The facility also has 25 RV slots with full water and electric, which will be converted to a series of small research PODs. WEED currently has the initial $500,000 down payment, but will need to raise additional funds to pay the remaining balance of the purchase price, as well as renovate the property and facilities.
