Colorado is known as one of the pioneers of recreational cannabis legalization. If you’re planning your first visit to a dispensary in Denver, you might be wondering what the process is like, what to bring, and how to find the right products for your needs. At Gardens Dispensaries, we’re here to make sure your first experience is smooth, educational, and enjoyable.
To purchase recreational cannabis in Colorado, you must be 21 years or older with a valid, government-issued photo ID. This includes a driver's license, passport, or state-issued identification card. No exceptions are made, even if you're only a few days away from turning 21.
Unlike medical dispensaries, recreational cannabis dispensaries in Colorado do not require a medical marijuana card. If you meet the age requirement and have valid ID, you're good to go. That said, medical dispensaries are still available for patients with specific needs and medical recommendations.
