SKUNK BUTTS DRIVE US NUTS!
Cannabis odors are only part of the story...
and the impacts don't stop at property lines!
NoSkunkButts.org is a community-driven campaign raising awareness about the impacts of commercial cannabis operations on residents throughout San Diego County and NOT ONLY THE UNINCORPORATED COMMUNITIES!
We believe people deserve to enjoy their homes, property, and quality of life without unwanted impacts from nearby operations.
WHY WE'RE HERE?
NoSkunkButts.org is your community resource for understanding the impact of cannabis cultivation on our neighborhoods. We aim to provide a platform for residents to share their experiences, stay informed about local developments, and take part in community actions that advocate for our shared interests.
San Diego County's Socially Equitable Cannabis Program passed 3–2. Now residents of the unincorporated communities are asking:
Why are we being asked to bear the burden of solving a problem we didn't create?
Aren't there alternatives we could explore?
THE BIGGER PROBLEM
Cannabis odor is impossible to ignore.
But it's only one part of a much bigger conversation.

ODOR IMPACTS
More Than an Inconvenience
Strong cannabis odors can drift beyond cultivation sites and into neighboring homes, yards, businesses, and public spaces. For nearby residents, the impact can extend far beyond simply opening a window.
The strong skunk-oder smell from large outdoor cannabis fields or commercial plantations can easily travel several miles depending upon the weather.
COMMUNITY IMPACTS
Protecting Our Communities
Large-scale commercial operations can bring changes that affect the character and quality of life of nearby communities.
Additionally, anyone traveling through the area and visiting tourists can be affected as well.
Residents deserve to understand how commercial cannabis development may impact the places they call home.
RESIDENT CONCERNS
Questions That Deserve Answers
From traffic and infrastructure to water, environmental concerns, and regulatory oversight, residents often have important questions about how nearby operations may affect their communities.
YOUR VOICE MATTERS
Communities Deserve a Seat at the Table
Residents deserve clear information, meaningful participation, and a voice in decisions that affect their homes and communities. When concerns arise, people should know where to turn and how to be heard.
