420 things to do for 420 in isolation
April 20th (or 420, as it’s commonly referred), has been synonymous with cannabis culture for decades. While we would usually be celebrating together on 420, things may look a little different in the age of social distancing.
Not to worry, you can still commemorate the plant we all love on April 20th by yourself or with friends. And if you’re not sure how, we have you covered.
