When Hemp Shak owner Katy Hemler came to her San Luis Obispo store Monday morning, she knew something was wrong. I looked in the door and I could tell things were already missing, she said Wednesday. And when I walked in so much was gone.
Hemler estimates $50,000 worth of merchandise was stolen from the store overnight.
Part of downtown San Luis Obispo for 25 years, Hemp Shak sells eco-friendly clothing, locally made CBD (cannabidiol) products, local art, records, and jewelry.

A burglar or burglars stole more than half of a downtown San Luis Obispo store’s inventory, the business posted on social media post.
Hemp Shak, located at 781 Higuera Street, sells eco-friendly clothing and cannabidiol (CBD) products, as well as local art, records and handmade items. The store was burglarized Sunday night or Monday morning.
Store owner Katy Hemler wrote in a Facebook and Instagram post that the burglary was a “low blow.”
“I am at a loss for words. I guess sick to my stomach,” Hemler stated. “We have worked insanely hard to keep going through this year with shutdowns and restrictions. It’s been a roller coaster of uncertainty and stress. To have this happen to us right now it’s just appalling.”
