2. Medmen
Medmen in Santa Ana has many resources available to help customers figure out the best products for them. Those looking for CBD have a wide variety of formats to choose from, including Papa & Barkley Releaf Balm, which has a 1:3 CBD-to-THC ratio, and a tincture from the same brand that is 30 parts CBD to 1 part THC. Thirsty patrons can also get their CBD in liquid form, as the shop carries Lagunitas brews with equal amounts of CBD and THC or a version with an 18:1 CBDto-THC ratio.
Medmen also carries a range of accessories, apparel, beverages, concentrates, edibles, flowers, pre-rolls, topicals, vaporizers, and more. The store is centered on convenience as well, as patients can order for pickup or delivery with ease.
Medmen even has a rewards program called Buds, so patients can earn points with every purchase getting them exclusive access to deals and more. Want to read more about cannabis? Medmen has an extremely informative blog that answers many of the questions you might have.
While the other two top vote recipients in this category are cannabis dispensaries, Medterra specializes exclusively in CBD products. The company was started by a group of people who are passionate about CBD and the company believes in making it available to all those in need.
Medterra says its products contain undetectable amounts of THC. The hemp from which its products are made is grown under the guidelines of the Kentucky Department of Agricultural Industrial Hemp Pilot Program, which allows Medterra to sell its products in all 50 states and internationally.
All of Medterra’s products are tested by a third party to ensure quality and consistency. Besides human CBD treatments for issues such as insomnia, muscle pain and stress, Medterra also sells products for fourlegged friends.
For example, if your dog has anxiety about things like fireworks, Medterra has CBD chews and drops that are safe to give to your dog to ease anxiety.
