YES, we are a legal licensed adult-use dispensary in New York.
There are several benefits from buying from a legal dispensary, including:
- TESTING – all the products we sell have been tested for impurities – such as germs, toxins and metals by a NYS licensed laboratory. The results of those tests are clearly visible on every package;
- BETTER INFORMATION – so you know exactly what you’re consuming including the THC percentage, and what other cannabinoids and terpenes are in the product;
- BETTER EXPERIENCE – by consuming safe, high quality tested products where you know exactly what cannabinoids and terpenes are present, you increase the likelihood of having a great cannabis experience.

People 21 years or older can consume cannabis in a private home or in most places tobacco can be consumed, with the exception of consumption in a motor vehicle, a private business (such as a restaurant patio), a hookah or “cigar bar,” or on federal property. Never drive under the influence of cannabis. When transporting cannabis, it must be in a sealed container.
You can’t smoke on federal lands (that means don’t bring your cannabis to a federal park). Although cannabis is legal in New York, it’s still federally classified as a Schedule 1 Drug, making it not okay to be anywhere that’s federally controlled. Cannabis also cannot be transported across state lines.
