I try to visit different places just to see what's out there. These reviews are misleading. While I like the thought of using a licensed dispensary, the prices and med quality here will prevent my return.
$65 an eighth for meds that are far too dry? I get better meds delivered to my house for far less. Do not let atmosphere guide your decisions...shop my friends....shop.

Wow... price, price, prices... Even the brownies are costly and very weak. Meds were very dry like always. Folks do your shopping around. I hate to see people being taken advantage of especially those that really need the medicine. Lots of options in town. Do your research. The tree is a nice place and the people are very friendly but none of that matters with prices like that.

This is the best dispenary I have visited in the Valley. Better prices and quality of service. I don't go anywhere else.

Not sure where the patients referencing low grad meds are talking about. Definitely not here. Cannadential at 24.1% THC and near 50/50 hybrid is not low grade. I actually appreciate that they have a range of meds (even the 13% stuff at $42 an eighth). At least this is a state licensed dispensary, so they care enough to have there meds tested, unlike caregiver clubs. Sure it's expensive, but you're paying the same price as other dispensaries that are on par with a mental hospital waiting room. This place is more on par with Starbucks and they can actually take your credit card. I saw a caregiver (20 something years old) drop off meds at a caregiver circle. Although they're meds were cheaper by far, it's good to know that my money isn't going towards his brand new Mercedes. True story. At least here I know my money is going to a top notch facility, outstanding meds, and an incredible staff.

over dry over priced and lack in customer service.. now i remember why i stopped coming here. rode the bus for 2 hours to get to giving tree thinking id be a ftp since the system crashed - not a thing second problem was the bud looks like garbage and doesnt even test that high anymore 3rd problem being the budtender either failed to recognize my dissapointment or just didnt care and when i left the have a nice day seemed to have alot of sarcasm attached to it. im going to trumed at least their bud is worth the extra cost.

Short wait times are the best thing about the place, sad as it is to say. The flower was good but I wouldn't pay the price again. Announcing new lower prices and still maintaining $40+ eighths is a sham. If you're on a fixed income there are much better everyday prices in the neighborhood.
The budtenders were nice but weren't too keen to give adequate details on the individual characteristics. Asked about 7 different strains and got 3 vague descriptions, maybe they were hungry as I did go in before lunch.

I don’t know what didn’t translate from the other location but the bud here seems a bit over priced now. Maybe I’m just noticing all the pricing because you have to wait 40 minutes at minimum even on their slowest day. The employees and the flow of people is far to slow for the volume of customers this location gets. The bud is good but with the wait times and then constantly being out of stuff. What exactly are you paying for. I understand all the Rec patients have questions but no one has time to wait at your store for almost an hour.

I don't know where $520/oz price is from. Found their menu http://www.givingtreeaz.com/menu/ . Went today to check it out, and the people were super nice and knowledgeable. Trying out the frankenberry. Guess they're the only ones who carry it. Looking forward to trying it out tonight. Thanks GT

This place was highly recommended to me, so I came with a very positive expectation... First impression; the waiting room is super comfy, like I'm in someones living room. The receptionist was welcoming so that was nice.... ..it almost made me forget how incredibly funky weird the air smelled. Not like weed. Like chemically. Like "My god,what is that strange smell"?!?. I get led back to the sales room, I'm not sure if I got the wrong budtender, but seriously, I think she was frustrated with my presence. I was asking questions, alot of questions.. about product, about ingredients in their house vapes.... she seemed offended and the answers felt kind of forced, maybe she was tired and done with the day, I don't know. Well long story short, I left without product, I left feeling less than welcomed by the staff... with the exception of the receptionist. I don't think I'll be returning sadly.

They are deleting reviews! Leave your review on Facebook! Wow.
Terrible experience walked in before this man and didn’t get to the right check in spot and was skipped I hate the check in process and the weed was shitty today very low quality. I didn’t say a word but left feeling like I won’t be back.

Horrible set up!! People just cut in line even if I have a online order and my medical card. This place is a joke last time here.

I use the North Phoenix location...staff and products always EXCEED my expectations. If you are a professional/discrete person and wish to feel comfortable (e.g. a very pleasant atmosphere for patients), I highly recommend The Giving Tree. THANK YOU Alex and the entire staff for helping me manage my chronic rheumatological pain and PTSD.
Everyone is so kind. Relaxing and comfortable. Thank you to all!

I have been in the past,But your suggested donations are going up.And don't tell me your in line with other shops.THAT'S BULLSHIT go on line and see for your self. I live three miles away and would drive twenty miles out of my way,just so u wont take my cash.Just set good donation rates.
December 29, 2013
Good stuff but suggested donations are WAY too high, 65 an 1/8 what what what?
Yup over 500 donations an oz, no weed is worth that in my book.
They still have the three tiers and donations levels. When I bought the thrid tier it was no where near med quality and was with seeds.

Best quality hash around, I just wish I didn't have to call and ask which strains you have every time I want to buy hash :( Perhaps list them online? Also great strains of flower I've picked up is their White Widow and their Deathstar.
