As wildfires tear across the West Coast, we're checking in with our 420 community on Instagram to see how everyone has fared.

The following four farms and businesses were destroyed or damaged in the wildfires. If you know of anyone who sustained damage, please let us know so we can spread the word (DM us on IG) and support our community members as they recover.


Sweet Creek Farms

Sweet Creek Farms, located in Sonoma County, California, is a small, family-run cannabis operation owned by Keala Peterson. According to Peterson, Sweet Creek was damaged by the fires and lost about four-fifths of its marijuana crop. Peterson's cannabis plants are not insured, and she expects around $150,000 in losses. Peterson reported firefighters were able to save part of her family compound.

It looks like a wasteland. [...] Pretty much, it’s a total loss.

We just found out that probably everything burned.
