The Herb Center- Bend

5/24/2016
I'm probably biased since my husband just started working for their farm, but here were my initial thoughts before that. The location is great, it's awfully easy to find. The only thing that could make this particular location better is more space. They were hiring when I went there and it was packed, so there wasn't very much space to move around. The staff was friendly and helpful. The budtender (wish I had gotten her name) was the most knowledgeable person I've come into contact with since beginning my dispensary tour. I picked up some of their American Beauty, which was fantastic. Wish I had reviewed that before it was gone too, but it's almost always in stock so that will come later. They have a GREAT selection and lots to choose from. Their product is green, sticky, and stinky, just how I like it. They make their own everything and each product is tested, marked accordingly, and organic. However, they could change their packaging. I'm sick of plastic packaging everywhere. Please shell out for glass jars, and maybe make a rewards program for those of us who would reuse them or bring them back. The Herb Center has some of the best prices in town. They cater equally to rec and medical patients, and they really care about the products they are putting out. I'm looking forward to see where this business goes. As far as working there, I've actually heard negative things about how they treat their employees. However, as I mentioned before, my husband just started working for their farm a month ago and he absolutely loves it. Everyone I've met who works there seems to love their job, so don't always believe what you hear.

Dr. Jolly's

This location happened to be a few blocks away from the hotel I was staying at when I first got to Bend on Monday. After checking out their menu on here, and after my husband stopped by, I decided to take a peek. It's a little confusing at first because it's in a shopping center and the door is actually on the back of the building, but just keep walking, you won't regret it. Upon entry they have a wide open waiting room with lots of goodies (reading material & gorgeous glass). There was no wait or rush. The budtender immediately let me know they were family owned an operated, huge score in my opinion. I told her I was looking for a nice ADD strain and ended up leaving with an 1/8 of Jack Herer which I'd heard was a fantastic strain for that. It is, btw. Dr. Jolly's has punch cards so you earn awards as you shop and they also have great deals. The only thing I don't like is plastic packaging. My husband picked up some Slymer and it was featured so he got to bring back a lovely glass jar, but they recycle the plastic ones so that makes up for it. They get their inventory lab tested and both percentages and price are listed on each product. This is a lovely dispensary, I will definitely be back.

Lightshade - Havana

Loved it! I stopped by driving through to Oregon and saw that it was rated the 2nd best dispensary in Colorado. It did not disappoint! I picked up a few grams of their Cherry Lime Haze, which is absolutely incredible and my new favorite strain. My husband picked up some of the Bordello, which is great but more of his type of strain than mine. The location could be a bit more large vehicle friendly and in a less busy area, but it's worth the stop. The staff was super great, they were playing some great jams, and they had a game on their big screen TV. They bring a few people back at a time and you get your own budtender. I didn't shop around because I was in a hurry and I knew what I wanted before I got there, but I would most definitely go here again. Clean environment, friendly and knowledgeable staff, excellent product!
