Another milestone in cannabis normalization and destigmitization. ✅ Attendees of the CA State Fair now have the opportunity to fully experience the cannabis products they learned about inside the educational exhibit. It’s been incredible to engage, interact and educate such a massive audience coming from all over our state. We’re seeing people’s eyes light up— some are long time advocates and consumers, others are exploring their curiosities. All kinds of people, from all walks of life coming together. That’s what makes cannabis so beautiful. Our activation is closed today, but we’re back in action tomorrow (Saturday July 20) and would love to have you by. https://lnkd.in/euHKYZUH #cannabis #cannabisretail #consumption #events #news #retail

Granny gets high at the California State Fair! 💚
CBO, CMO @ embarc | Creative, Marketing, and Strategy for Cannabis | Founder Studio Good
Granny gets High 😶🌫️ at the State Fair! When I found out we were doing the State Fair my mind started racing with content deas. See, the Cannabis Cafe, and other consumption experiences are designed for enthusiasts. The same goes for traditional cannabis events. These events attract a crowd that is *intentionally* seeking out cannabis. But the State Fair is another world. We knew this was an opportunity to show how wholesome this plant is and all of the different types of people who enjoy it and are curious about it. [enter Granny Thelma and Zen] Granny Thelma has been enjoying the California State Fair for YEARS, but has never seen or experienced anything like this. Zen is a musician and cannabis connoisseur (previously a lead at our Redwood City shop). We walked her through the exhibit where she got to learn about the history of cannabis, took her out to the dispensary and then brought her to the consumption area where she got to hang out, have a beverage and a gummy while soaking it all in. I couldn’t stop taking photos and b-roll of the experience; seeing Granny Thelma and Zen have a genuinely sweet and authentic experience was amazing. Gummy Grannies rule. 🤘💚 Thank you Andrea Champion for helping me pull this together, couldn’t have done it without you! #cannabis #marketing #cannabisretail #cannabismarketing #cannabisbranding #events #branding #content Embarc

We've been heads down working on something BIG...
I have been quiet on here lately as I’ve been heads down working on the biggest project we’ve taken on yet - sales and consumption at the CA State Fair. This is a huge deal for so many reasons, including that this is a massive step forward in our collective push for ongoing normalization. The scale of this is hard to describe. It's GO TIME for seventeen days, starting today. I am so, so grateful to our team, our partners and the brands that have come together to bring this to life. To be doing this in my hometown makes it all the more special. So if you see a pregnant lady hobbling and wobbling around the California Cannabis Experience with a huge smile on her face, come say hi! That’s me and I’d be stoked to meet you.

We teamed up with our friends at Humboldt Family Farms for a super limited Summer Solstice release (which dropped last Thursday). 7 grams of African Sherbert grown by Nuekom Family Farms, located on the Trinity River in Humboldt County. ☀️🌞😎 We’ve been rocking our “Explore the Sun” soundtrack which is full of sunshine hits like LEN and Smashmouth. Sorry not sorry for getting all those classics stuck in your head. Happy listening and smoking— https://lnkd.in/gup5jNwW #cannabis #cannabiscommunity #sungrown #cannabismarketing
