Today, October 1st, 2015, is the first day that Oregon marijuana dispensaries can sell recreational cannabis to adults 21+. It’s a historic day for the men and women who’ve spent decades trying to bring the plant out from the depths.
So naturally if you’re an Oregon resident or just visiting from out of state, you’re probably wondering which are the best pot shops to visit. There are tons of choices and places to check out, but if you’re in Portland we highly suggest going to Farma PDX (916 SE Hawthorne Blvd).
Hailing itself as a network of licensed growers, botanical scientists and patients bound by a common purpose, Farma PDX provides predictable and effective medicine that enhances people’s lives. It was also recently named the Best Dispensary and Best Budtender in Willamette Week‘s “Best of Portland” annual awards.
In addition to their state of the art facility and practices, Farma’s greatest asset is none other than Jeremy Plumb, known for both his political action and knowledge of plant science. He’s met with countless politicians, scientists, growers and patients who believe in the plants’ benefits. Here he is meeting with the father of modern cannibis, Dr. Raphael Mechoulam.

Speaking of photos, Farma’s Instagram page is top-notch. Not only does their page’s narrator provide customers and followers with pretty pictures indicative of Portland’s art scene, the informative posts on sales and new products will make you wish you lived on the West Coast.
If you choose one dispensary in your trip to Portland, make it to Farma PDX. And a big congratulations to the state of Oregon and its residents.
