🌱 As We Approach 4/20...

This year’s 4/20 feels especially monumental. It’s likely the last one before adult-use dispensaries open statewide, ushering in a new era for cannabis in Minnesota.

Even with the slow rollout, the celebration is ON. From tribal dispensaries to block parties and wellness wind-downs, there’s no shortage of events to choose from.

Let’s dive into the vibes ⬇️
