Brian Applegarth is the founder and president of the California Cannabis Tourism Association, proprietor of Emerald Country Tours, and innovator of The Cannabis Heritage Trail non-profit; his mission is to demystify and normalize the cannabis conversation.

The Cannabis Heritage Trail

The Cannabis Trail is a non-profit organization, preserving and celebrating northern California's cannabis heritage. PHASE ONE of The Cannabis Trail includes Sonoma & Mendocino counties. This is an on-going project and labor of love.

This will be a self-guided exploration perfect for you explorers who want to make your own rules and do it on your own timeline!

Other Bay Area Tours

If you want to dive into an exploration of the business side of cannabis, Green Guide Marijuana Tours offers a Future of Cannabis tour highlighting both San Francisco and Oakland stops. They offer a variety of walking and bus tours including a “Bud Crawl.”

Cannabis Travel Association

SHOW NOTES UPDATED MAY 2021: What was the California Cannabis Travel Association that we discuss on the Potcast has now changed to the Cannabis Travel Association International as a response to the global movement to integrate cannabis and tourism ecosystems. The CTAI serves to promote the development of safe and responsible cannabis tourism, unify the cannabis and tourism industries, and advocate for an enabling regulatory environment and promoting best practices in this space.
