Dre
Dre’s started as a distant dream I had of owning my own dispensary, mainly because weed was so inaccessible in most states.
I enjoyed having access to safe products whose origins could be verified beyond the vague description of “Cali weed,” and found the knowledge on various strains to be helpful when deciding what I might like. One thing I wasn’t feeling? The in-store experience. Another? The lack of representation in dispensaries across multiple states. It felt more like visiting a super serious pharmacy than anything: belt ropes, jewelry cases, dome cameras, etc. No candy, sweet scents, impulse aisles, or the draw of retail shopping.
Visiting other dispensaries just confirmed this for me. I started to feel like I was invading those spaces; the exchanges were awkward, security trailed me, and budtenders hesitated to help more often than not. Though it was surprising to be met with this energy, it inspired me to do some research on the history of cannabis and its connection to race here in the States. That research pushed me to consider what I could do personally to affect positive change.
From there, my dream of a dispensary transformed into a deep desire for a space that not only provides access to cannabis and related products but is intentional in acting as a place to commune in true fashion—digital or otherwise. We take pride in the process and give our time to get it right so that we can provide you with an elevated experience. It should feel personal because it is.

Our Blazin’ Activity Book is yet another great example of ways we’re looking to make our impact within the industry.
