Trimmigrant

Whether you support it or not, marijuana cultivation has become increasingly rooted in our local community and economy, bring boutique fertilizer stores, cheap weed and a fall migration of slightly disheveled "trimmigrants" to our area.

Based on previous experience, Nevada City was braced for a massive influx of so-called “trimmigrants” when the marijuana harvest season started.

If there is full legalization in California, the poor Bohemians making $200-400 day trimming buds in Humbolt County will be earning $10 an hour, if that. I have a trimmigrant relative who makes that kind of money working basically half-days.
