Brown, whose arduous journey over the last several years included successfully exonerating himself in the Australian legal system on charges of illegal supply of cannabis (see: Is This the Last Australian to Face Court Over Medicinal Weed?), published a message on his Facebook page today announcing receiving permission from the DPI and soliciting contacts for production of skin care and pet food products utilizing Australian processed hemp oil.
