GREENFIELD, Calif. — A huge fire broke out just after 4:20 p.m. Monday at a marijuana growing operation in Greenfield.
Videos sent to KSBW by Greenfield residents show several greenhouses on fire that are used for cultivating cannabis.
The property at 900 Cherry Avenue is operated by Greenfield's largest employer, Loudpack Farms.
At least 300 people work at the cannabis facility. Dispatchers said employees were evacuated, and no injuries have been reported.
Witness Delia Gonzales said, "A marijuana company is up in smoke."
"The Greenfield Fire Department and Soledad Fire Department are on the scene of multiple greenhouse structures on fire at 900 Cherry Avenue in the City of Greenfield. The on-scene Incident Commander is now requesting three additional engines from Gonzales, CTF, and King City," Fire Service of the Central Coast wrote on Facebook.
Witnesses posted photos on social media of thick black smoke billowing into a blue sky.
Oh my. There’s going to be a lot of stoned fire fighters.
Witnesses posted photos on social media of doritos, brownies, popcorn, corn chips, cookies-
Just after 4:20? Someone’s dabbing rig start the blaze?
We can not rule that out!
The writer did seem to want to inject a little levity in the story with the “just after 4:20” line. Could be a coincidence though.
Mexican cartel at work?

I think this Amy Larson is trying to be funny.
In other news: There was a hugh rush on Pizza at the Greenfield Pizza Hut following the fire.
I’m sure there were hundreds of onlookers yelling “let it burn”
Appears the Mexican drug cartels don’t like competition.

I could have enjoyed a fire like that in Pittsburgh.
I haven't decided to have the pleasure and meaning of a marijuana high since around 1980. Bummer.
Blow some smoke out our way.
I'm 71 years old, and just don't have the damn energy to get some herb. Bummer again.
;-)
Wikipedia has an interesting article on it to. Check out the “origins” section.
Hehehe...interesting thought.
I'm betting hundreds will crowding in downwind of the blaze?
The birds were “flying high” without flapping their wings, and the fire-fighters didn’t give a darn if the whole place burned. They were happy just standing there and sniffing the smoke, free of charge.
#10. That wasn’t Spinach on those pizzas, just saying.
