Orlando residents, and undoubtedly some visitors, will be marching around Lake Eola Park on Saturday, August 4 from 2-5 p.m. to “fight for our right to medicate with whole plant-based cannabis.”

It is still a crime in Florida to possess whole-flower cannabis, even if you have been given an MMJ Card. Marchers are hoping to gain the attention of Governor Rick Scott to “hold up our constitutionally guaranteed right to whole-flower cannabis.”

The event is hosted by groups like the Florida Cannabis Club, Buds For Vets, The Weed For Warriors Project, Floridians for Cannabis, Weed for Warriors Project North Florida, Canna Fest Florida, Florida Marijuana, Central Florida NORML, Canna Chronicle, and Florida Cannabis Club.

The event will be hosted in the Walt Disney Amphitheater on the western edge of Lake Eola.
