Green Scenes is the first ever guide to cool, ethically-operated legal cannabis destinations across the US.Spanning 15 legal states and over 45 cities, this guide comprises 130 of the most interesting dispensaries, hemp-friendly spaces, and cannabis consumption-welcoming experiences and lodging in the country. Almost all are locally owned, and every single one is operated by people who care about the integrity of this plant, the positive disruptive potential of this industry, and the well-being of their employees. In addition to creative businesses like Nomsternailz cannabis-friendly nail salon in Oregon, consumption-friendly sound baths by New Rituals in California and immersive infused dinners by Arizona's Cloth and Flame and Sacrilicious in Massachusetts, Green Scenes also features Q&As with renowned cannabis entrepreneurs and advocates who have helped make these scenes possible. This book aims to capture the current state of legal cannabis culture in the US and highlight the people going the extra mile to build a sustainable and equitable cannabis industry.
