Sun Cup 2018

The 1st Sun Cup 2018

The first-ever Washington Sun Cup!

In honor of Earth Day, WSIA presented the First Annual SunCup Invitational on April 21, 2018.

The WSIA’s Inaugural SunCup Invitational brought together sungrowers from across Washington to compete for the best sungrown products in the state. Congratulations to the 2018 SunCup Winners and Runners-Up!

This year’s event was centered around Earth Day, intentionally highlighting the environmental benefits of sungrown cannabis cultivation and redirecting the focus of the cannabis industry to its impacts on carbon emissions. In addition to the competition, attendees enjoyed stand-up comedy from Seattle International Comedy Competition Finalist Taylor Clarke, as well as a spectacular presentation from Dr. Ethan Russo, Research and Development Director at the International Cannabis and Cannabinoid Institute. Russo discussed the complicated nature of terpene profiles and issues relating to pesticides in cannabis.

All were inspired and humbled by the wonderful, environmentally-conscious cannabis entrepreneurs who showed up to support this year’s event. The energy generated will be built upon as WSIA expands its membership in 2018 and focuses on the 2019 Legislative Session, where policies supporting sungrowers and environmental protections in Washington will be collectively developed and advocated for.
