CARP Growers

Then and now. Swipe. 1981 & 2020. There's a rumor that Carpinteria Valley greenhouse farmers know a thing or two about growing plants. #carpgrown #carpcannabis @ Carpinteria, California

NPR compiled info from a wealth of reputable studies and found that fears about legalization didn't come to pass. Good quick read.

Under the Carpinteria Sun. Who is enjoying this first burst of spring? @ Carpinteria, California

It seems every day we inch closer to federal legalization. And with each step forward, stigmatization fades away. https://www.nytimes.com//nyregi/ny-legalize-marijuana.html

The SAFE Banking Act is making its way through Congress. It was re-introduced and passed in the House of Representatives and now reintroduced in the Senate. In 2020, a similar bill stalled in the Senate without a vote. If passed the bill would provide a safe harbor for financial institutions to work with cannabis companies in states like California. It's a step in the right direction for the legitimacy of a productive and promising industry.

From Linden Avenue straight down to the World's Safest Beach. So much to love.

Wet Wednesday. Waterways are flowing. DID YOU KNOW? All CARP member farms recycle irrigation water by recapturing and recirculating it. That means no runoff into local creeks or the ocean.

Freedom Warming Centers does an incredible job saving lives in Santa Barbara, said Graham Farrar, president of Glass House Group who founded and operates The Farmacy of Santa Barbara and Glass House Farms in Carpinteria. A culture of compassion is at the heart of the cannabis industry, so when it comes time to help out, we are overwhelmed by support.
