Willow Creek

Weed signThe Campaign Against Marijuana Planting spent only one day in Humboldt County this week, but that one day landed a major score in their quest to destroy a species of plant.

Yesterday CAMP personnel in coordination with the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office and the US Forest Service discovered and killed 10,709 growing marijuana plants ranging from six to eight feet in height at a location off of Forest Service Route Six in the hills above Willow Creek.

According to HCSO public information officer Brenda Godsey in a release, evidence at nearby campsites confirmed the grow site was that of a drug trafficking organization, and the plants grabbed have an estimated street value of more that $3 million.

 

CAMP will continue operations in Humboldt County throughout the summer, officials once again reminded the public.
