This year’s California State Fair will make history, with marijuana sales and on-site consumption being allowed for the first time.
While the annual fair has featured cannabis competitions and educational booths in recent years, this will be the first time that the state-sanctioned event will permit adults to consume and purchase marijuana. At the event, which takes place from July 12-28, adults 21 and older will be able to review different cannabis products, add them to a virtual shopping cart and pick them up at one of Embarc’s off-site dispensaries. The fair will also feature a 30,000 square foot consumption area.
In California, this year’s cannabis awards competition is also being expanded to include product categories other than flower such as pre-rolls, concentrates and edibles. There are more than 500 entries, which is double the number compared to last year.
This year, we submitted some entries, and we ended up winning gold in the Mixed Light category! For that category, we submitted the Rank Rose, which was grown by Pacific Reserve and bred by Massive Creations. The winning factor for this flower was its incredible 2:1 ratio of THC:CBD and terpenes. It stood out because of the unique high you get when you promote the growth of other cannabinoids, not only THC. Check our menu to see if it is still in stock. This gold medal winner, amongst others, will be on full display at the CA State Fair for two whole weeks. You can catch the award ceremony on July 27th at 5 pm!
