From new zoning laws to ill-advised wars being waged, there’s changes a-brewing and the future of the industry remains unknown. One thing is certain though, dispensaries take the cake when it comes to cleverly-named businesses, and in honor of 4/20 (and our 4/20 issue) we rounded up the dispensaries that put a smile on our face and made us chuckle. Enjoy!
