Mike Tyson Wants to Be a Weed Rancher

His recently purchased 40 acres will grow marijuana plants.

Mike Tyson is hoping to score a financial KO with newly acquired farmland, according to a story that ran on Curbed LA via The Blast. The California City farm, north of Lancaster in the Mojave Desert, will also sport cabins and spots for camping.

“If all goes according to plan, about 20 acres of the property, called Tyson Ranch, will be devoted to growing weed. The ranch will include a school to teach growers ‘the latest and greatest ways to perfect their own strains,’ a factory for making weed-laced edibles and an amphitheater. Never want to leave? Tyson Ranch will also have campgrounds and cabins for ‘glamping.’”
