The environmental impacts of unregulated, large-scale cannabis cultivation are real. The overuse of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides pollutes the water and poisons wildlife. Illegal water diversions result in dry creeks. Deforested and poorly graded land damages habitat for native fish and wildlife. So-called “trespass grows” on public lands wreak havoc on the landscape. SYRCL remains committed to sharing educational information that protects the river from potential negative impacts and calls upon our community to make sure that the environmental impacts on the Yuba River are not overlooked.

SYRCL’s vision is that people will see that well-regulated agriculture – which is what cannabis cultivation could be – should not harm water quality, fish and wildlife. We’re addressing the sustainable cultivation issue through collaborative leadership, science, stewardship and education. As a community we can educate each other to ensure cannabis is grown in an environmentally responsible and sustainable way.

Join us on April 30th and learn how to protect the Yuba while managing your grow.

A huge thanks to our sponsors! We couldn’t do it without the support of our local community and all of you!

We are currently accepting sponsors for the 3rd Annual Growing Green for the Yuba. If you’d like to get involved, please contact Julie Pokrandt at julie@syrcl.org or 530-265-5961 ext. 214
