Celebrating 4/20 in West Virginia: What It Means and How to Do It Right

April 20th, also known as 4/20, is more than just a date on the calendar for marijuana lovers. It’s a day of celebration, recognition, and advocacy for the marijuana community. Even though West Virginia doesn’t have a recreational marijuana program, medical marijuana patients still have plenty of reasons to celebrate the day!

Why 4/20 Is Worth Celebrating

4/20 is a cultural holiday that brings awareness to marijuana-related issues, from patient rights and safe access, to de-stigmatization and legalization efforts. For West Virginia’s medical marijuana patients, it's an opportunity to reflect on how far we’ve come in building a program that helps people manage chronic pain, PTSD, cancer-related symptoms, and other qualifying conditions. 

How to Celebrate 4/20 in West Virginia

Since recreational marijuana is not legal in West Virginia, all celebrations should respect the state’s current medical marijuana laws. Here are some ways you can honor the spirit of 4/20 responsibly:
