Before the Culture...
In this episode we interview a long-time Southern Humboldt resident and activist who tells us one of the origin stories of marijuana in Humboldt County as it relates to the back-to-the-land movement of the 1970’s.
We learn how this plant helped provide opportunities for activists, at home and abroad, and supported the building of a solid, thriving community.
We reflect on the impacts of marijuana’s progression through Humboldt County's community through the years, and discuss (and sometimes lament) the frustrations of it's current trajectory.
We hope you enjoy this glimpse into the life of an activist before marijuana took over the Humboldt scene.
