Very satisfied with their products here. Unfortunately, as my spouse was opening up and separating the flower, we found multiple seeds in the product. Being that he takes this for his mental state, this really did not help. This took him from 2/10 to 8/10. Imagine trying to calm the Tasmania devil down. I don't smoke, but I am sure we aren't supposed to be getting seeds in our product. Especially this many from a single bud. Overall, the dispensary is a great place. πŸ˜‡

My first time here and I already felt right at home, Tara helped me out and was just a ray of sunshine to speak to! I was a bit overwhelmed when I first walked in but she was quick to answer my questions and direct me to the section I needed. All in all it's a positive environment with friendly and helpful faces, definitely happy to have them around!

Alexa was great, she pulled me aside and explained the menu that is off to the side away from the other customers and I was able to explain my diagnosis and symptoms in a more private comfortable setting and I really appreciated that! I was more comfortable asking her questions that I normally would have reserved and just called back to asked so that I would not feel embarrassed if anyone over heard. Alexa was professional, positive, and confident in her knowledge of the products, which is great! She possesses the interpersonal skills required for the setting she’s in, goes above and beyond and knows how to read the room! I told her my budget from the get go and she without hesitation understood and kept me well below it! I recommend waiting to be helped by Alexa she was great! I’m sure all the techs are amazing but my go to from now on is Alexa!
