First City Owned Cannabis Dispensary Opens in Anoka
Ever since weed became legal, people have been waiting for dispensaries to open and be readily available. Some CBD/THC dispensaries have had to close recently because of the taxation that has been implemented since the legalization of recreational cannabis.
Minnesota’s First Municipal Cannabis Dispensary
As Anoka’s municipal dispensary, we’re here to provide safe, equitable, and thoughtfully curated cannabis products in a welcoming, education-first environment. Whether you’re exploring cannabis for wellness, relaxation, or curiosity, our knowledgeable team is here to guide you with integrity and care.
Oh, and they have merch too! Don't you want a sweatshirt or something?
