April 20th is just around the corner!

Ever wondered why the holiday is celebrated on 4/20? Its origins are not entirely clear. But, according to Vox, in the 1970s, teenagers in California may have started it by smoking cannabis daily at 4:20 p.m. Since then, 420 became popular among enthusiasts as a code for smoking cannabis and eventually inspiring the 4/20 holiday.

Don’t have plans for the big day yet? Emerald has that covered with our list of 4/20 events for cannabis lovers to attend throughout the nation.
