As a cold winter is coming to an end, many smokers across the country have set their sights on sunnier, greener pastures. People across the states should consider a break in Oregon, a 2015 addition to the roster of legalized states. Oregon boasts of beautiful scenery — particularly as summer draws nearer — that includes a windy West coast, dense forests, and high points like Mount Hood.
Portland continues to grow as its own cultural hub and smaller cities like Eugene and Salem are worth their own dedicated visits. So if you decide to head to the place where they fly with their own wings, you might as well embrace unique ways to get high. Experienced smokers with high tolerances should dare to try the cornucopia of concentrates the state has to offer. Here’s our list of the top eight most popular concentrate companies in Oregon that are definitely worth checking out:
