Frequently Asked Questions

Is this legal?

Medical cannabis is legal under state and local law. Voters in California legalized the use, cultivation, and possession of cannabis for those with a doctor's recommendation or approval when they adopted Proposition 215 in 1996, also known as The Compassion Use Act. Within California, the Act allows for the recommendation by a physician for the medical use of marijuana by a patient, and the cultivation, transportation and use of marijuana for medical purposes by patients and caregivers. The Compassionate Use Act exempts patients, caregivers and physicians who recommend the use of marijuana for medical purposes from criminal laws, punishment, or the denial of any rights or privileges. Senate Bill (SB) 420 (Chapter 875, Statutes of 2003) was written into law in December of 2003 (see California Health and Safety Code, Article 2.5, Sections 11362.7 through 11362.83) and is part of California law to this date.

Is my information stored in a government database?

No, your information is only stored for our records and is NOT submitted to any government agency. All records are encrypted for your protection.

Why is home delivery better?

Safety and Convenience! Storefronts can be intimidating. Many patients do not like the experience of getting frisked by security guards, going through metal detectors, and being under the eye of a video camera. You may have limited access to transportation, or you simply do not want to sit in traffic. Whatever it may be, we will bring the dispensary directly to you, in the privacy of your own home.

What is the delivery process?

We first pre-verify your recommendation status with your doctor. Once you have been pre-verified, we can then discuss medicine details and answer any questions you may have. Please expect a two hour window period or more for all deliveries, depending on driving conditions and location. Order ahead for preferred timing. For all first time patients, we are required to take a computer scan of your drivers license and doctors recommendation for membership purposes.
