Elk Grove Village, Illinois Cannabis Seeds

The forested area of Elk Grove Village once attracted Potowatomi hunters, who probably enjoyed the beautiful scenery and relaxed after a long, hard day of hunting with a sweet smelling peace pipe. The Miami Indian tribe called the area “Wapiti”, their word for elk, before the white settlers came to the area.  Elk are still the symbol for Elk Grove Township and Elk Grove Village. The town wasn’t really on the map until about the 1940’s, when incorporated with a population of 125.  

This was about the time the Chicago O’Hare Airport was beginning to manufacture Douglas transportation aircraft. O’Hare would eventually become one of the busiest international airports in the country and the major hub of United Airlines, making their headquarters in Elk Grove Village. 

With more recent population numbers showing a town of around 35,000, the people of Elk Grove Village recently voted to approve recreational marijuana sales within their city limits.  If you’re looking for quality cannabis seeds, Mosca Seeds is a leader in cannabis seed genetics, offering authorized seed bands that deliver to every state in the U.S.
