The Many Faces of Marijuana at Humboldt's Yes We Cann Parade and Hullabaloo

Humboldt’s homegrown heritage marched through the streets of Arcata yesterday afternoon to show support for the cannabis community. The Yes We Cann Parade & Hullabaloo event was the first of its kind but most likely not the last.

From old to young, from traditional farmers in plaid shirts to glitter and balloon wearing festy types, the many faces of marijuana in Humboldt were on view.

Organizers said wanted to highlight that “[i]t’s time to come out of the shade and into the light to build a future for sustainable cannabis and show our community that we are loud and proud.”
