Ed Forchion Newsroom - Profile and News Archive

Free speech activist Ed Forchion's long standing battle for marijuana law reform has been documented for over two decades.

Considered by many as the “grandfather of marijuana reform in New Jersey,” Forchion is a bone cancer patient who states he needs marijuana for his symptoms.

Forchion, a Rastafarian, is the co-owner of New Jersey’s only cannabis-themed restaurant, NJWeedman’s Joint and a spiritual sanctuary, Liberty Bell Temple III, located directly across from New Jersey’s Trenton City Hall.
