A cannabis store, or marijuana dispensary is a public place where marijuana is legally sold for medicinal or recreational use. In the Netherlands it is known as coffeefest. In the United States however they exist mostly as an alternative outlet for medical and recreational use. In Canada, they are also legal, although illegal in many areas of the country. There are several types of marijuana stores from which to choose.

The most traditional type of cannabis store is one that sells medical marijuana. This type of store is usually located near an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility or one that sells other types of drugs. They will generally be found inside the facilities themselves, so that is one way to determine if the store has the proper permits to do business in that particular area. Medical marijuana is only available through a doctor’s prescription and it must then be prescribed by a psychiatrist or psychologist. The regulations are based on the United States government and most states have created their own requirements. Any store that does not adhere to these regulations is considered an illegal dealer of the drug.

Ancillary to this type of store is the caregiver or baby-sitter dispenser. These are also commonly found in clinics or hospitals. Licensed marijuana dispensers are subject to government inspection and must operate according to state laws, but many caregivers are not licensed and operate unlicensed stores that are considered a risk because of the risks involved with providing marijuana to children.

Grow clubs and home gardening shops are another type of cannabis store. These shops are often found in back alleys and along sidewalks in cities. Customers can visit these locations to purchase marijuana seeds and plants at a low cost, often for distribution to other users or friends. Grow clubs essentially provide a way for people who wish to grow their own weed to be able to do so legally without running into trouble with the law.

One other type of cannabis store is called a medical dispensary. This type of store sells strictly to medical marijuana patients who have qualified. Unlike a regular marijuana store, a medical marijuana dispensary is allowed to sell recreational marijuana. However, patients are limited to purchasing a specific amount from the dispensary each month. A patient can only legally possess one marijuana leaf each month without exceeding that limit.

There are dozens more types of cannabis store across the United States that are not based on whether you can legally use marijuana. These stores are operated by individuals who wish to make some extra money and who choose to operate a business from their home. Many stores are considered a tax id for personal use and they are therefore open to customers who meet the state and local requirements to purchase medical marijuana.
