Review by Tabitha S.

I love this place. All of the staff are always friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Our last visit Lindsie waited on us and she was great! I have debilitating anxiety and appreciate how she was helpful but not pushy with me. Thanks for that!

My goodness, what service. I’ve been to 3 locations but frequent Alton the most. I love the knowledge and genuine good wisdom the staff extends to me every visit! CBD has been a game changer in my life and the ongoing care of my ill elderly mother. The tincture and pain cream are must haves-all the time! The stores are so clean and beautiful, perfectly quirky, well managed and decorated with fun and passion. I feel good about supporting their mission! You can tell this company loves and cares about their employees and their guest. Well Done!

I've been there several time, it's always been so pleasant! Everyone that works there is so helpful and nice. The space is huge and very well lit, the atmosphere is beautiful and clean. Still very welcoming tho. Great selections on everything CBD brownies, lollipops, wraps also pipes, papers, rigs, vapes so much more stuff. They have CBD lotions and oils as well. Stop by and check it all out.

What is a Dispensary?

A dispensary is a store that sells special items or dispenses the specialized items. Cannabis or marijuana dispensariers started in the US some time in the early 1990’s when Dennis Peron opend the San Francisro Cannbis Buyers Club. Back then the cannabis dispensary faced a ton of hardships, but Dennis, his team and dream helped pave the future for all future recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries. In 2014 the first recreational dispensary, 3D Cannabis opened it’s doors in Colorado. As of 4-1-19 33 states have medical dispensaries and 10 states have recreational dispensaries.

At a dispnsary one will find many differnt kinds of cannabis flowers (buds) and concentrates, edibles along with smoking untensils, but have a limited selection compared to online shops like Elev8 Glass Gallery. The dispensary also will have what is called a budtender to help you find what you are looking for. If you need help with cannabis info Elev8 Presents is a good resource.

What is the difference between a medical or recreational dispensary?

In realtiy medical and recreational dispensaries are the same thing. This all comes down to the states laws on cannabis. We feel cannabis is just like alcohol and medical will happen first and then recreational will follow, and so far history is showing this. Dispensaries are an excellent place for patients and recreational smokers alike to find the cannabis that best suits their needs!
