I am very picky about where I shop for my meds. I use high MG CBD and micro dose THC for sleep & anxiety. These people took great care of me with a wide selection and offering insights on products. I went with one of there recommendations on a tincture. It worked amazing and i am very happy with the choice. I did have an issue with the packaging causing it to leak out in my bag losing half the product when traveling. They had me come in and replaced it at no cost to me. They will have my loyalty for there kindness and customer service 💯

Staff is so kind and professional! Being a senior with chronic pain with no help from the medical community led me here. The staff made a recommendation that has been a Godsend. Thank you for your help. 10 stars, please.
