Measure A is a local ballot initiative in Humboldt County that would endanger the livelihoods of our county’s small farmers. It is currently being misrepresented as supporting small farmers. The Humboldt County Growers Alliance asks that you vote NO on Measure A and save Humboldt’s small farmers. Find out more at: https://www.nohcri.com/

The weed industry? Stick a fork in it, it’s done. Now we’re sick of all the complaining and entitlement from people who made the most money in the county. Should have thought twice before backstabbing the neighborhood
And the Humboldt County Growers Alliance was complicit in helping the county government abate and destroy small growers. I would consider voting the opposite of anything they ask. They are the really the Permit Pansy Alliance….screwed everybody who could not afford to Pay-To-Play…
Based on what evidence? Where were you when the county updated its enforcement protocols to address unpermitted operations? Stop blaming others for your inaction.
Oh! Mr Negativity. 🙁 We see who gives in, who surrenders, which is just like the powers that be want.
Yeah. It’s BAD now. But some people will hang in there and reap the rewards of the market the it inevitably comes uP!
You smoking dabs, bro? It ain’t never coming back up, not until you sell your farm to Del Monte or Dole or Monsanto…
I dab I dab I doo…
Since when is destroying the framework that the government built and was supported only by sellouts and severely misinformed individuals giving in and surrendering? Your comment is a prime example of gaslighting
Vote yes on measure A.
It will only hurt people who are in bed with the government.
