We just want to know… where da 💣 h**p at?!

The Emerald Cup offers a full spectrum of opportunities to elevate your farm or brand with a highly prestigious win at our 20th anniversary landmark event this May.

As our understanding of the plant evolves, so does the marketplace, and so does the Emerald Cup. With that evolution has come growth and we now have over forty unique categories and subcategories to spotlight your specialization.

Our Alternative Cannabinoids category, for example, features 10 distinct subcategories in 2024 🏆

These entries - high in cannabinoids like CBD, CBG, CBN, etc - are often (but not always) h**p-derived and multiple subcategories even allow for federally compliant entries from outside of California.

As social stigmas go up in smoke products like these help more folks form new relationships with the plant that we already know and love.

The 20th Annual Emerald Cup is accepting entries now through February 9th with convenient entry intake locations up and down the state - but why wait?

Your legacy is our legacy so let’s make history together on May 4th & 5th at the Kaiser in Oakland 🙌💛

You can find all the info and the entry form on our site or email us for more details ✌️🏆
