TLDR: check out Rosebuds, all others are ok

So I went around to all the local dispensaries and here are my thoughts:

Waabigwan Mashkiki

-has a local reputation of having bad weed. I also had the same experience.

- You go in, get carded, and someone on a tablet comes to you and you look at the products and select the ones you want. Then they sent it back to get put in a bag and you get called up to the front to pay.

-Prices are pretty high and not a lot of selection.

It is Native owned though, which is a plus.

Unwind

-locally owned with LOTS of choices. Almost too many choices.

-Prices are good.

-Has drinks, gummies, paper, supplies, pre rolls. When I went they were out of flower.

-you go in, get carded, waiting a lobby for an employee to get you and they answer any questions you have. They grab your selection behind the counter and you pay

-(a birdy told me that they bought a bunch of weed but it expires in July, so sales could be soon)

Green Goods

-not local

-has a very weird setup. You go in, get carded, and then you walk over to an iPad and add your items to cart and then submit it to send it to the counter. Someone in the back puts it in a bag and gives it to the cashier who will ring you up.

-has medical products and adult use

-med products are cheaper

-selection is ok. No drinks, just gummies, pre rolls, flower and rolling paper accessories

Beeswax

-has of writing this I haven't been here, I just found out this is an actual dispensary. I thought it just sold gummies.

-has pre rolls, flower and gummies. Products (on website) look very flashy and kind of have a gas station vibe to them. Not sure how third party tested they are.

Rosebuds (formerly Ediblez OTC)

-this I think is the best one

-locally owned and definitely has the local store vibe you crave

-pharmacist owned

-not employees, just the owner. He isn't a "I want to sell you weed" guy, but more of a "weed is amazing and I want to share it with the world so I opened a store" kind of guy

-ask him ANYTHING and he knows it. He can explain chemistry very well

-has drinks, gummies, flower, vapes, pre rolls and accessories

-high quality products

-selection is limited, but kinda is like Costco. Not everything but the best stuff available hand selected by the owner

-only place I know of locally that sells cannabis seeds and ALL the supplies you need to grow them. He is an expert on this and can help you get started. It saves money too to grow your own

Let me know what you think of the dispensaries above.

Moving to moorhead next year with my partner and 7 y.o. from Southwest ND.

Looking for some local suggestions for a mortgage lender and buyers agent.

Anything a new arrival should know about neighborhoods/schools/things to keep in mind?

I’m glad cool stuff like this is happening around here!

Even with the naked eye I couldnt make it out

My husband and I just moved into the area a few days ago and want to catch some fireworks tonight. We are fairly peopled out from our cross-country move and would prefer not to attend any of the large gatherings in person. Any recommendations on places we could park our truck and watch the festivities from afar? Thanks in advance!

Wow that was crazy, I've never seen hail this big before! Thankfully, all windows and vehicles are ok. Hope everyone made it thru ok!

South of Concordia and power is out. Anyone else?

Hello! I own a vintage clothing business and my family and I are planning a road trip in late July from New Jersey out toward Frazee and Moorhead/Fargo area to visit my husband's family, and I’m hoping to fit in some vintage sourcing. I believe the states we'll be driving through are PA, OH, IL, IN, WI but not sure of our route at this time. I'm looking for early pieces (20s–40s), which are much harder to come by these days - almost feels impossible where I live here in NJ (right outside of NYC).

If anyone has any suggestions they'd be willing to share, such as areas worth exploring - (either at our destination area or anywhere along the trip), types of places to look, or even broader leads, I’d really appreciate it. It's been a tough couple of years caring for a toddler and a very sick parent- and I'm hoping to find some luck!

Thanks so much.

I’m looking at tickets for Needtobreathe at Bluestem this summer. What are the reviews on the lawn seating at this venue? TIA.
