Commercial Medical Cannabis Permit & Cannabis Cultivation Permit Processing Update from County of Humboldt Planning Department

By Government

County of Humboldt SealOn June 12th, John Ford the Director of Planning and Building for the County of Humboldt issued an update regarding concerns about an application deadline date for June 30, 2017. In his letter he related that there are two separate activities that share the deadline date at the end of the month.

The first activity is a call from the State Water Resources Control Board for farmers to take an active role in understanding how direct diversion of water and diversion to storage applies to your project. The deadline is set for June 30th. Contact the Division of Water Rights staff at WB-DWR-Cannabis@waterboards.ca.gov or call 916.341.5300.

The Director states in his letter that the second activity is not necessarily a deadline, but a commitment that he made back in May that states all applications completed by June 30, 2017 will be processed to decision by December 31, 2017. He reassured readers that the Planning & Building Department will continue to receive applications and process them after June 30th.

Humboldt County cannabis farmers interviewed by New Frontier Data

By Media

Our local newspaper, the Times-Standard, has an article about New Frontier Data partnering with us here at Humboldt Green to gather farmer data.

The Washington, D.C., marijuana data analytics firm New Frontier is conducting a novel survey of Humboldt County’s cannabis farmers and how they are adapting to the advent of legalization.

“It helps us understand this enormously influential but currently not well understood market,” New Frontier’s Executive Vice President of Industry Analytics John Kagia said Wednesday. “If California is going to be the most important single cannabis market in the world and if Northern California is the single biggest supplier of the cannabis that is going to be sold in the state, then in order to understand California, you’ve got to understand what’s happening in Humboldt and surrounding counties.”

Ganjyard to Collect Community Data!

By Education, Events

Join Humboldt Green and be a part of the community at both the Summer Arts & Music Festival at Benbow & Oyster Fest! We will be asking the community for input on their local neighborwoods with our Ganjyard Appellation Project. This will enable us to push for local views reflected in what California’s cannabis appellations.

What is an Appellation?

Appellations are legally defined and protected geographic and other identifying indicators that will protect small farmers in rural regions. By creating appellations, we can protect the names we cherish from being abused by out-of-area companies. For instance, words like “Humboldt” and “Alderpoint” would be reserved for only those who grow in those areas. Also, processes like “Sun Grown” or “Rain Grown” can also benefit from legal protection in the same way was “fair trade”

So come out on either of these two community events and put a pin in our map of Humboldt. The questions we are asking are:

  • What do you call your neighborwoods
  • What makes your appellation unique?
  • What do you think would help protect the environment of your appellation?

Be a part of the future!
