HCGA submitted a letter to the Director of the Planning & Building Department on behalf of licensed Humboldt cannabis businesses to request a conversation to address barriers to on-farm trimming on permitted cannabis farms. In discussions among our membership, on-farm trimming has emerged as a top priority for small and independent farms who are seeking to establish a craft cannabis brand. We hope to work collaboratively with the Planning Department to identify potential barriers to on-farm trimming activities, and to reach solutions that will be workable for farmers, county staff, and other stakeholders within the county.
