Bridgewater, MA According to Vantage Builders, Inc., a general contracting and construction firm based in Waltham, Theory Wellness, Inc. (TWI) hired the firm to build out its medical marijuana cultivation, processing, and dispensing facility at 1050 Elm St. The dispensary is scheduled to open to qualifying patients in April 2017.
