The 12 Jays of X-Mas Gift Box is a beautifully crafted, limited-edition collection featuring twelve premium pre-rolls, each from a top-tier farm in northern California’s renowned Emerald Triangle: Humboldt, Mendocino, and Trinity Counties.
The 12 Jays of Christmas project celebrates and supports the cannabis community of California’s world-renowned Emerald Triangle. The fundraiser directly supports the trade associations representing northern California’s cannabis businesses: Humboldt County Growers Alliance (HCGA) and our neighboring farmers in Trinity and Mendocino County.
By choosing the 12 Jays of Christmas, you are helping the organizations continue their advocacy for small farms, sustainable practices, and the future of California’s iconic craft flower culture.
Drawing inspiration from Art Nouveau and ornamental design, Mabel blended her love of fine art and playful storytelling to create a piece meant to be treasured, not tossed – a collectible that honors the craft of twelve farms coming together to celebrate the holidays.
You can learn more about Mabel on her website.
When you choose the 12 Jays of Christmas, you’re supporting farms that prioritize sustainable, eco-friendly practices. Each farm uses only natural sunlight to cultivate their crops—reducing carbon footprints by avoiding energy-intensive indoor lighting, while promoting soil health and conserving water. This is a gift that respects our shared environment and celebrates the benefits of truly sun-grown harvests.
General
The event is hosted by Emerald Triangle Craft , in collaboration with the Humboldt County Growers Alliance (HCGA) and licensed California cannabis retailers. It’s a private donor appreciation event that celebrates the Emerald Triangle’s independent farmers and craft culture.
Attendance is limited to adults 21 and over with a valid, government-issued ID. Individuals 18 and over with a valid California Medical Recommendation are also welcome to attend in accordance with state law.
Once you make your VIP donation, you’ll receive a confirmation email with a link to reserve your tickets for the VIP Donor Party of your choice.
In that email you will receive a coupon code that allows you to “purchase” your ticket(s) for $0. Only Donors may get tickets, but due to the way the website works, we needed to put a value on the tickets and give you a coupon code to make the tickets complimentary.
Please bring your valid ID (21+ or 18+ with MMIC), your RSVP confirmation, $1 (California law prohibits giving away cannabis for free, so we will need to collect $1 from you when you receive your 12 Jays of Xmas box) and festive spirit! Cannabis products will only be distributed by licensed retailers at the events.
