The Ripple Effect: How Your Cannabis Purchase Benefits the Community

The cannabis industry has become a significant economic driver in California. In 2022, the legal cannabis market in California generated $5.3 billion in taxable sales. 

However, the economic distribution hasn’t always proven equitable. Many smaller and legacy cannabis farms have been absorbed by large-scale corporate entities that care more about quantity than quality.

As a family-owned cannabis dispensary, we are dedicated to supporting local, legacy, and family-owned growers. So, when you step through our doors, you’re doing more than just buying the highest-quality cannabis—you’re investing back into the community and the families who live and work here.

The quality of our cannabis lies in the soil and the hands that farm it. Northern California cannabis farmers bring generations of expertise that simply can’t be replicated in large-scale operations.

Our localized approach has a multiplier effect on the economy. On average, 48% of each purchase at independent businesses recirculates locally, compared to less than 14% of chain store purchases.

Your purchase's impact extends to the environment as well. Many of our partner farms employ regenerative agricultural practices, which not only produce superior cannabis but also help combat climate change. 

By choosing locally grown cannabis from Goldenhour, you're helping to create a future where economic benefits are shared equitably, traditional knowledge is valued alongside innovation, and the unique cannabis culture of Northern California continues to thrive.

As consumers, we often underestimate the power of our choices. But in an industry as young and dynamic as cannabis, your purchasing decisions have the power to shape its future.
