Humboldt County is one of the birthplaces of cannabis culture because of the near-perfect growing conditions it produces year-round. Sometimes there’s as little as 10-degree difference between the winter and summer months and the area gets rained on almost every month. Pair those factors with high humidity levels and you give farms like Eel River Organics monumental conditions for growing high-grade cannabis.
Eel River Organics makes their home on the banks of the Eel River and brings decades of growing experience to the farm. This farm exclusively grows outdoor cannabis in an environmentally sustainable way that is only possible because of the fertile environment they’re in. The avenue of giants is a specific part of Humbolt County where coastal weather patterns stretch inland and facilitate the growth of the great redwood forests.
Dry farmed cannabis sounds counter-intuitive, right?
Cannabis needs water to grow like all plants. Eel River Organics’ cannabis does indeed use water, it just doesn’t come from the farmers or irrigation, it comes from the earth in two distinct ways. The first is groundwater and the second is through the rain. Dry farming requires great soil conditions for the roots to reach the groundwater over 20 feet below the surface. A Dry farming technique utilizes water restriction which not only helps the plants develop cannabinoid and terpene profiles, it also saves water in their often drought-stricken state.
You can find cannabis flower, concentrates, and cartridges under Eel River Organics’ banner. Nectar is their cartridge line while amber is their dabable concentrates. Everything they send to dispensaries is fully organic and created in a bio-diverse permaculture farm which ensures safety, flavor, and effects. The Eel River Kush strain features citrus, earthy and woody tones that personify the special climate it’s grown in.
You can find Eel River Organics’ products in southern and northern California.
