As California touts its success in combating illegal cannabis operations, one county stands out as a glaring omission: Siskiyou County. Recent reports highlight the state’s aggressive stance against unlicensed cannabis, but for residents of this northern California county, the reality on the ground tells a different story.
State Claims vs. Local Reality
California’s Unified Cannabis Enforcement Task Force (UCETF) recently announced seizing over $120 million worth of illegal cannabis since January 2024. The task force, created by Governor Gavin Newsom in 2022, has conducted operations in 11 counties across the state. However, Siskiyou County, known for its longstanding issues with illegal cannabis cultivation, was noticeably absent from this list.
