The 411 on Sacramento 420

Patients use medical marijuana for all sorts of reasons: terminal diseases, like cancer and HIV/AIDS; other illnesses, like glaucoma; and even some cases of diabetes, or to alleviate chronic pain, soothe the stomach so that one can eat, assuage anxiety, concentrate, help go to sleep, relieve nausea, alleviate headaches, ease small pains. Or to just plain relax.

And patients consume this marijuana in various forms. They smoke it; vaporize it; nibble on it; mix it in food, as with olive oil; lick it like ice cream; drop it under tongues as a tincture; rub it on a sore spot as a gel or cream; spread it in butter form; suck it as a sucker; or even drink it in a soda.

There are at least 40 medical-cannabis dispensaries in the Sacramento area—likely more—but these dispensaries do more than just sell medicinal marijuana. They offer compassion programs, where the very ill or poor can obtain free medicine. And they also offer classes, as varied as how to grow and cultivate medicine, yoga, patients’ rights tutorials and end-of-life counseling.

And, most importantly, they help many patients quit pharmaceutical drug habits, which often cause long-term health problems.

Sure, it feels good to use marijuana and is great for creativity and relaxation. Even partying. But for these dispensaries—and this is especially the case for Sacramento dispensaries—it’s more than just marijuana. It’s about community. It’s about Sacramento.

The following is a comprehensive directory of local cannabis dispensaries, delivery services, referral doctors and cannabis-delivery shops for patients—or future patients. All answers were provided by dispensary owners and cultivators.

Happy 420!

In January 2009, Unity found its home in the Point West Business Park after 10 months of diligently searching for a location that met the attorney general’s guidelines. The A.G. guidelines called for a collective to be 1,000 feet from a school, park or residential area. After working with our real-estate agent, we found the perfect location, right off of Business 80 near Cal Expo. Unity is located in a professional business park with great neighbors, where patients will find safe, private access off the main road, with plenty of parking.
