People continued growing their profitable weed in Humboldt, of course, and contrary to the Bureau of Land Management director’s promise, the army and National Guard did not return. Gradually, though, most who grew on public land in those days moved their gardens onto their own property, especially after the passage of the state’s medical marijuana law six years later. But the story of Green Sweep and the community’s reaction to it speaks to the rebellious nature of the place, and how much things would continue to change in the coming decades as marijuana became increasingly legal. The image of seventeen-year-old Blossom Edwards stumbling upon armed troops would be seared into Humboldt’s collective memory forever. What remained largely ignored was how the other children of Humboldt’s growers fared.
