Hello from Upstate CBD! We are a new CBD Dispensary located in Schenectady, New York; a city right outside Albany. CBD (cannabidiol) is a cannabinoid from the cannabis sativa plant (a post will be written directly tackling the science behind the cannabis plant). We opened June 1, 2019 and have been seeing much success already. We are the first CBD Dispensary in Schenectady and pride ourselves on getting the best third party lab tested products throughout the country, free of contaminants and toxins. Donald Andrews, the owner, opened up shop due to the demand for CBD at his two smoke shops that he owns (Vaped City). People kept asking if he carried it, so he jumped on it and purchased a couple different products like tinctures, lotions, and vape products; they sold off the shelves quicker than expected. With that being said, he brainstormed putting together a CBD dispensary geared towards just that. He managed to put the store together in 6 months and, when he opened up shop in the city of Schenectady, people were thankful, grateful, and raving about having products available so close to home. At our dispensary, our staff is extremely knowledgeable and trained to deliver the right information on how CBD can help you and your physiological systems. It is suggested that is can provide much therapeutic effects by bringing the body back to a proper homeostasis (balance). We have an onsite health practitioner, as well, that can guide you on your journey to positive health through the creation of a holistic regimen. Stay tuned for more information!
