What happened to your flower? I used to enjoy what you guys sold. Now the flower tastes like dirt and no longer has the aroma of goodness like grape kush mints.
The percentage claimed to be above 25% but it didn't have any effect. Very disappointed in the quality and the lobby of the store is depressing. Low energy and bland.

Verdes is my favorite dispensary so far. Good selection of flowers and edibles. The buds were of excellent quality......their Cannatonic and Buddha Tahoe strains mixed together provided the relief I had been looking for......

Definitely the best dispensary in Albuquerque. Best tasting, smelling, and looking buds!! I just recently got the ' Belly Blend' pre roll, and it was so amazing for My tummy. Took My nausea and pain away. I definitely recommend it! Plus the staff are great people! :)

I think this place is nice. One of few in the area set up to accept credit card payment. The flower is decent quality, I preferred the previous way they sold it and am not a fan of them following everyone else. Previously you could purchase flower and the price varied if you got popcorn nug or one big bud. I'm sure it wasn't the easiest to provide this method of dispensing but it was appreciated and set them apart. I have tried several strains from them and was satisfied every time. No seeds and lack luster driggers flowers here. The staff for the most part is friendly and knowledgeable, but I have observed some dead weight employees there. Maybe get rid of the 3 guys standing around talking to each other and drop the price a couple bucks per gram?
The waiting area is small and becomes uncomfortable during busy hours. Parking lot is inconvenient.

They are not for the patient. They are for prophet and pure greed. I do not recognize them to anyone who needs medical. My go to has been urban wellness. Ps I’ve been to verdes many times and everytime I was displeased with service and medicine. Everything is very over priced and the employees don’t know what they are doing

The Verdes Foundation in Albuquerque is far and away the best dispensary for many reasons. First they have the highest quality flower and edibles I have found in the greater ABQ area. Second, they offer classes and demos of their products and the employees are certified by a cannabis nurse. Yesterday I got free assistance from Renee concerning the best strains for my particular symptoms. I even received a sample of medicine! No other dispensary in the greater ABQ has done that for me. The third reason I think they are the best is that I purchased a vaporizer from them and then lost my how-to-use instruction booklet. Verdes copied me off a new one--no charge! Renee also walked me through the whole process of cleaning and set up of my vaporizer. I have tried all the other dispensaries to get birthday stuff, but my heart belongs to Verdes.

I really liked them the first time I visited but the interactions have been steadily declining. I'm not really sure they're medication focused and they don't really seem interested in serving all qualifying patients. Their budtenders are nice enough but I haven't really had any luck with their recommendation.
My most recent visit has left a rather bad taste in my mouth. The short version is, they either lied about having a product, bait-and-switched, sold part of my reservation to someone else, or a combination therein. Furthermore, what they did sell me (the Grenco battery and herbal atomizer) did not come with instructions. Much to my surprise and frustration the battery actually needs a charger they don't even carry - and their budtenders don't seem to know this or really anything about the product they did try to sell me a standard micro USB cable though. This is incredibly disappointing and now I've wasted money on something I'm not even sure I can use and I cannot return.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend them. There are other dispensaries that are more transparent, patient oriented, with better prices and more knowledgeable/experienced/helpful budtenders.

This shop started price gouging strains. $15.50/gram because it says 28%THC. The consumer never receives what the THC reading is. Why do you price strains based on a false reading? False marketing strategy needs to stop! Spread the word!

I have been trying every dispensary in the ABQ area and Verdes hands down are the best.
Hard hitting strains at fair prices, and the staff are friendly, knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. (and cute) lol

I enjoy The Verdes Foundation. Rare Darkness is so good. Can't wait to try their other strains especially Skunk 1 and GSC. I also need to try some of their concentrates.

They have a sweet app to download. The shop is even better!

very open atmosphere. the two ladies working were sweethearts. very much worth coming in mid week to get the deals. some prices are high but then again so is the quality.

Quality can differ from product to product or strain to strain. The service is pretty good but they dont answer the phones consistently - especially during busy times. The atmosphere is very crammed and they currently only have 1 location. Overall, I'd give this place 3.9 stars out of 5.

Went in for my first time yesterday after my regular dispensary closed for the day. I walked in just around closing time and they added me as a new patient even though it was after 5, which is when they stop taking new patients. The two women in there were extremely friendly, non pushy and knowledgeable. Made me feel very comfortable. I picked up a gram of Girl Scout Cookies, Real Darkness, Bubba Kush and Purple OG Kush, 4 of the 5 they had available. They were very knowledgeable on the effects of each and since I was a new patient I got a free gram which helped on the price, even though I found the prices to be pretty reasonable. Each stain gave off good medication and each was cured well. Even though this is across town for me, I plan to come back regularly!
