Yes and the government still does grow its own supply today for research and some medical purposes.

Before the 1930's America used to grow hemp, which is different from marijuana in that it does not produce THC. The marijuana industry in the 1920's was mainly an import and export business, however, as the alcohol prohibition caused marijuana use to skyrocket in popularity.
