Tips from the community

Head across the bridge to San Francisco for a quick stop in the legendary Castro District. This LBGTQ+ neighborhood played a pivotal role in paving the way for cannabis legalization. A place of acceptance, it was where the community could openly express themselves and challenge the status quo, and it continues to do so today.
