4/20 in the Time of Coronavirus: 2020’s Virtual Lineup

With the country adhering to shelter-in-place practices, many within the cannabis community and weed culture have started to openly fret about what would happen to their favorite day of the year: 4/20, especially in the year 2020.  I mean, who knew that the 4/20/20 holiday we have all anticipated for years (a whole month of 4/20!!!) would be completely changed and overshadowed by a disease that attacks the lungs of all things! 

Fret no more, 4/20 doesn’t have to be a bummer this year. Tune in, dial up or get online and join millions of like-minded cannabis comrades celebrating our holiday.

Here’s what’s happening and how to access it:

The intention is for viewers with any level of experience with cannabis or yoga to get inspired, connect with community, and practice self-care from the comfort of their own home.
