Emerald Pharms

Located at the entrance to the Emerald Triangle, Emerald Pharms is something special in the world of cannabis providers. Nestled on the 12-acre “permaculture oasis”, with Real Goods and the Solar Living Center, we became the world’s first all-solar powered medical cannabis dispensary when we opened our doors in 2015. Our store is open to anyone 21 years and up (with valid ID) or to those 18+ with a medical recommendation. We also provide educational information for those exploring the grounds who are curious to learn more about the land and what we do.

Emerald Pharms is a one-stop resource for herbal medication, education, and relaxation. The ambiance within our store welcomes visitors with local art and relaxing decor. We specialize in locally grown, full spectrum CBD-rich and THC dominant cannabis products in various modes of administration.

HERBAL EDUCATION

We believe that cannabis is a key part of a deeper understanding of the unlimited healing potential of the plant kingdom. We specialize in holistic health practices that integrate other plant medicines, massage and energy therapy, and medicinal mushroom synergies. We provide an abundance of illuminative information and current research to all visitors.Continuing education enables us to best serve our clients, and is the main priority for everyone who works at Emerald Pharms. All of our employees have been trained by Project CBD, an organization that  was instrumental to the opening of our store. Our staff has also been enrolled in the Medicinal Cannabis Training and Certification program by Dr. Dustin Sulak. Along with the specialized focus that our staff provides each client, we also offer informative handouts to bring home or share with others.

THE SHOP EXPERIENCE 
‍
We have an open door policy for those who are curious about what we do and want to learn more. Our shop is based on the sensory experience. Within the global perspective shift regarding cannabis, design is an essential way to dispel programmed stigmas. Our unique interior layout is specially designed to showcase the holistic intention of medical cannabis dispensaries. We provide complimentary Guayaki yerba maté or other assorted teas as visitors peruse the shop. People are welcome to look at the shop’s offerings and then take a seat on the couches inside, enjoy the beautiful views on our deck, or walk around the exciting expanse of the property.
