Also forgot to state this is the only dispensery in mass that puts humidity packets in the jars so your cannabis stays fresh. Unlike everywhere else's dry as a dessert cannabis.
This place SUCKS. They ignore the leafly orders and won't answer the phone. The bud is terrible, little nuggets that crush into dust. Won't ever go back, they can suck it

I have been finding seeds in several diff strains over the last 3 ounces or so in the last couple of months time span. I recently bought more of what used to be a somewhat good chem 4 but now no terps. NONE on the taste buds or fingertips. No entourage effect! Ugh!! I feel totally ripped off for that $50 and will NEVER shop Garden Remedies again unless they make it right with me which idk how that's possible. Basically I bought crap from a medical dispensary that like the industry has become appears to be profits over patients in prices and obviously in the quality. I grow some myself and I know better and I know quality. My theory is that maybe pollination to force maturity is going on. Just sayin'. Looking at the last oz that I bought I saw what appeared to be plants caught right before full blown seeding. Several diff strains too. Not just one. I know what seed pods look like and your weed had immature seed pods throughout. The last 1/8th of the seeded Chem 4 was a complete disappointment. Like I did NOT have an extra $50 lying about to burn. Like most patients I struggle financially for what?! Overpriced garbage. Smh ..

A safe environment with a knowledgeable staff. I also found my consultant to be very friendly and willing to answer any questions I had. The products are of superior quality! I highly recommend Garden Remedies not only on their products but also the professional appearance and knowledgeable staff! I look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Second time visit. The Tangerine kush is one of the tastiest flowers I've ever had :) The service is one of the best if not the best around. No wait times as well. GR for the win!

My first time visit was pleasant but the only thing I disliked was the woman who helped me didn't seem like she fully understood everything which is fine but she should work on that.

One of the best dispensaries in MA! Staff is great, super friendly and super helpful. The flower here is always fresh and they always have a great selection. 10/10 would recommend :)

I reserved some flower for their 420 special at 40% off. When I got the email saying it was ready to be picked up, I was under the assumption that I would get what I ordered, as it works at the other dispensaries. Wrong. When I got there, the lines were through the parking lot, and at no time was any staff outside as you would see at other dispensaries. After waiting an hour in the cold, with the line barely moving, and leaving customers urging people to go home since there was barely any product, I went home. Talking about bait and switch. I've been a patient for 5 years and this is by far the worst the experience I've ever had.
No one has answered any of the telephone messages, nor replied to any emails.
Furthermore, since there was no one on the staff looking after the parking lot lines, some of the patients were not practicing social distancing and were creating a major risk of catching Covid. I will never go back to Garden Remedies again.
Bad service to good customers! Not coming to this store anymore and not going to garden remedies in Marlborough
Super friendly staff, in and out in less than 5 minutes and quality product. Best recreational experience I’ve had.

Great location. Very convenient. Close to all major routes.

Lots of strains ..but none with the cbd or thc content I was looking for . Not wanting anything but flowers this was a major down tried some tangerine kush and some high blue point but I should have just passed I could have gotten better effect if I had smoked some lettuce .

Was referred to garden remedies by a friend. Upon arrival I was kindly greeted at the door. After filling out the quick information needed to register, I was made aware that I would receive a first time discount of 20% which was awesome. The entire staff was very knowledgeable and answered my questions with ease. The edibles were perfect, they worked very well to minimize my symptoms and the flower was also very good. Overall I will be returning back and might I add that the set up and atmosphere was second to none. Way to go Garden Remedies!

Their vape pens are the far best in Mass. Their flower is very disappointing. The first time I went was good. The flower quality was good. I drive an hour and a half just to get to the place, the strain I got (cornbread) was all dried out, VERY leafy and I've found SEVERAL SEEDS. The first time I got a gram of it and it was better. The containers are pre-packaged so you don't know what you're getting. I feel like I was ripped off. I hope they can give me a refund or something. They charge too much for a crappy product when I could just spend the same amount for excellent quality anywhere else. I wouldn't get flower here

Overall five stars all around for this new dispensary even given its recent difficulties keeping a wide variety of flower strains available. Excellent location, friendly and knowledgeable staff, great products when they're available. The Tangerine Kush and Commerce City Kush are absolutely top notch when they are available, and they have had a reasonably wide variety of strains available over time, while definitely an indica leaning shop. Best of luck for the future!
was in and out (thanks to order ahead via Leafly) in NO MORE than 3 mins...BEATs standing in line in Brookline like a cattle of heard for 20+ mins!!!

Love it though I wish there were more rec strains available

Great stay , friendly environment with pharmacy like atmosphere , nothing negative to say besides the selection of flower, I wish they had more strains to offer
I called in since reservations via leafly were down to ask about stock, mentioning that I was unable to make an appointment ahead on leafly. The front desk guy simply tells me to look at the menu on the site. I arrived and was told that I needed an appointment, something I wish the guy on the phone cared to tell me. The menu was not accurate by the way, there was only 1 of 3 recreational concentrates available, which is why I even called. Useless customer service, thanks for not caring about anything.

THE VERY BEST dispensary in MA! The staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the products they carry. The staff will help you select from the different types of herbal medication available in order to find the best type for you (edible, flower, oil, lotion, etc.). I have been coming here for years now and will continue to make this my go-to dispensary. The wait-time/lines to get inside and grab your medicine are short! They also have an express line if you are a medical marijuana patient to fast track your wait time. They also save their products for medical patients when supplies are low so medical patients can always get the medicine they need.

I viewed the website prior to driving over 40 minutes to purchase flower . Upon arrival I was told that I needed to make an appointment . It would have been really nice if the website made this known before I wasted my afternoon driving back and forth for nothing . I score your establishment a big zero . Thanks for nothing . You lost my business due to your lack of consideration for your customers .

Their edibles are made with high fructose corn syrup. A known pro-inflammatory ingredient. I asked a supervisor to have someone call me about this, since many clients are battling inflammation among other things. Never heard back. They don't seem to care.
I stopped in a few weeks ago, as I was nearby and wanted to see the menu. Even though there were no lines or waiting, I was denied entrance, as I hadn't called first and made an appointment. I asked if I could simply book one now, since it was slow and I was sitting there wanting to do business. "No ... The laws have changed and you can't book an appointment sooner than 30-60 minutes later" even though it wasn't busy. I'm done with this place. So sad that I need to leave Newton, where I live, and try other dispensaries further away. I don't find them customer service oriented at all.

Easily the most informed staff members on their own product and its effects. I like talking to PSAs that know a lot about cannabis because I do too - so I want y'all to keep up. Other dispensaries really need to catch up to GR in that regard.
The concentrates are the best in the state - hands down. The flower? ...Is hit or miss. I bought 2 8ths of Rugburn OG on my last visit. One jar had nice fat nugs and they all looked perfect. The other jar had ENORMOUS stems, yellow burnt trim leaves all over most of the bud, and nothing but tiny larf nuggets. What the heck? How can I be satisfied with one jar of perfect medicine and the other looking like B or C grade at best?
The price is also astronomical. They need to bring it down ASAP because things just aren't that expensive anywhere else in the country and even in the state.

Excellent quality product. Their distillate was wonderful but I wish it didn't come on RAW scrape pads... Can't we get some silicon tab for the price? Great customer service - Joe's the ish.
