With temperatures falling to dangerous levels for local homeless populations, Freedom Warming Centers of Santa Barbara County serves a key role in sheltering at-risk individuals.
To help address this community need, CARP Growers member farms and The Farmacy of Santa Barbara partnered in December on the Grass Roots campaign. Together, The Farmacy and local cannabis brands Autumn Brands, Glass House Farms, Pacific Stone Brand, and Josh D Farms will donate $13,582 to Freedom Warming Centers (FWC).
