Hempstalk finally got the City of Portland to issue a permit for them to have their free, annual event at Waterfront Park this year.  The event will be held on October 17th and 18th.  We hope to see you all there!

It was a long, tiresome process, but in the end truth prevailed.  The city voted to overturn the original denial of the permit.  Even normally conservative City Commissioner Dan Saltzman agreed that the City was applying a “double standard” to the event, as many other events held at Waterfront Park have rampant marijuana use.
