SFR’s guide for where to buy cannabis flower, edibles, extracts, tinctures and more

Whether you’re a local or a cannabis fan visiting the city, expanded choices for shopping in Santa Fe are popping up like, well, weeds. With many dispensaries now operating from multiple locations, SFR scoured the city to get the deets about both industry newbies and old-school companies.

Best Daze

Father and son Len and EIi Goodman launched Best Daze in 2018, but the duo’s experience with cannabis goes back well before then to when New Mexico only allowed medical cannabis. The Goodmans previously owned the now defunct New MexiCann, a company Len founded in the early days of medical cannabis. Since its inception, Best Daze has since expanded to eight locations statewide, including three in Santa Fe. Best Daze offers a wide variety of flower, edibles and concentrates, as well as pre-rolls that range from a whole gram to the smaller, more manageable Dog Walkerz.

Black Powder Dispensary

Santa Fe’s newest pot shop is slated to open Oct. 23 near the intersection of Cerrillos and Siler roads and is owned by US Army veteran Daniel Mulcahy, who hails from Chicago. The dispensary stocks products from Multitude Manufacturing, Assurance Laboratories, High Maintenance, PhreshPicks, Enchanted and Dickens CBD, for starters.

CannaBliss

Madrid has been an unofficial cannabis hub for decades, which shouldn’t be much of a surprise given its overall bohemian vibe. CannaBliss leans into that legacy and image. Owner Cid Isbell talks up the company’s chemical-free crops and vegan edibles. CannaBliss is at the north end of the community, next to the iconic Old Boarding House Mercantile. The company’s “deli-style” operation means patients and customers can get a close look at the flower before buying and are not limited to prepackaged products. The store’s layout is on par with the surrounding stores that offer quirky art and gifts, with walls lined with non-psychoactive goodies and accessories. Behind the counter, though, are jars of locally grown flower and other cannabis products aimed at medical relief—or to just get you in the Madrid state of mind.

2883 NM-14, Madrid, (505) 216-0616


Deep Sky

As one of the few delivery options available in Santa Fe, Deep Sky’s brick and mortar is tucked away off Cerrillos on the Southside. If you’re lucky, owner Ben Harper, who’s a founding member of the pop-punk band Yellowcard, might even deliver your goods himself. Harper got his start in the cannabis game in California, where he managed a grow operation for a cancer patient before launching a delivery service there. Deep Sky recently expanded with a new downtown location.

300 Galisteo St., Ste. 105


Dreamz Dispensary

Open since 2022 on the sacred stoner 4/20 holiday, Dreamz focuses on an education model that aims to dispel the outdated sativa versus indica dichotomy myth. The company operates nearly a dozen locations around the state, but the Southside spot is its only Santa Fe location.

3256 Cerrillos Road, (505) 780-5489


Endo

Family and locally owned cannabis company Endo is the brainchild of Ian Aarons. With the help of his father Stephen, Endo launched in 2022. The company name is a nod to 1990s hip-hop culture, referring to high-quality cannabis grown indoors, but also the endocannabinoid system that runs through the human body. Endo’s own crops will hit shelves soon, but for now the store offers a rotating variety of products from local growers.

2903 Agua Fría St., (505) 477-3636

Everest Cannabis Co.

Established in 2016, Everest Cannabis Co. is one of the 30 “legacy producers” in the medical program. The company’s CEO Trishelle Kirk tells SFR that Santa Fe’s culture, strong sense of community and position as a tourism hub are attractive.

3963 Cerrillos Road, Ste. B (505) 416-5199


Fruit of the Earth Organics

A perennial favorite according to SFR’s Best of Santa Fe and one of the state’s OG cannabis companies, Fruit of the Earth makes sustainability one of its top priorities. The company also sets itself apart by having a completely separate entrance for patients. This family-owned business is also proud of its independence—it lacks third-party investors. Owner Lyra Barron tells SFR a performance space behind both dispensaries is in the works where the company will host musical acts.

901 Early St., (505) 310-7917


Green Fuego

Family owned and operated, Green Fuego is out by the airport, which owner Caryn Fiorina says brings in a fair amount of out-of-towners. Locals might recognize Fiorina as the wife of the late Municipal Judge Tom Fiorina, who built a reputation in part for clearing tickets in exchange for donated turkeys. Fiorina handles the books and licensing issues, while her son-in-law works in cultivation. Depending on when you’re there, you might also hear the playful stomps from above, coming from Fiorina’s grandkids playing upstairs.

7502 Mallard Way B (505) 365-2979


Harvest Foundation

Harvest Foundation has been around since the days of medical-only sales and remains a relatively small operation, with one store in Santa Fe, one in Albuquerque and another in Ruidoso. The company offers prepackaged bud, but also “deli-style” options, which means you can buy a precise amount.

150 S. St. Francis Drive, (505) 772-0521


High Class Cannabis

High Class can be easy to miss, as it’s sandwiched between an auto repair shop and a scrap yard off Agua Fría and out of sight from the road. Brothers Justin and Joshua Garcia opened the discreet dispensary in July 2022 and are currently a retail-only spot, but the shelves are stocked with products from local growers. The Garcia brothers, along with a cousin, are still working on setting up a reliable card payment system, so make sure you bring cash. High Class also sells 505 Clones for those who want to try their hand at growing at home.

2778 Agua Fria St., Ste. 10

High Desert Relief

High Desert Relief’s name harkens its days in the medical cannabis realm beginning in 2010. Its website and billboards boast that it is “probably the best cannabis in New Mexico,” which we believe is probably the best slogan we’ve seen so far. Also on its website, find a video tour of the grow operation and learn about veteran and rural discounts.

5041 Main St., Ste. 102, (505) 750-0608


Keyway Marketplace

Formerly Shift New Mexico, Keyway Marketplace has two Santa Fe locations, one off Hwy. 14 between El Parasol (where you can pick up the latest Santa Fe Reporter) and Santa Fe Brewing’s HQ, and the other around the corner from Chocolate Maven. The company’s website says delivery is coming soon, so keep an eye out for that!

1592 San Mateo Lane, (505) 699-1440

24 Bisbee Court, (505) 438-1090


KURE

KURE offers one of the few drive-thru spots in Santa Fe, but if ordering from your car is not your jam and you’d rather take some time shopping, the dispensary has two other locations. If you’d rather avoid downtown and aren’t up for making a trip to Eldorado, the Midtown drive-up location also offers a walk-up window.

2891 Cooks Road, (505) 930-5257


Leaf and Flower

The name’s changed a bit, but staff say things are pretty much the same. Formerly known as CG Corrigan, and then just CG, for “Cannabis, Good,” Leaf and Flower has been in Santa Fe since 2018—years before recreational-use sales were legal in the state. The company offers a free gram for first-time buyers, but staff say it’s technically a gram for a penny since state law prohibits them from giving away the green. If you don’t have a penny, there’s usually some Lincolns lying around, left over from generous souls who pay it forward. You can find other stores in Albuquerque, Placitas and Los Lunas.

802 Early St., (505) 695-1162

Love for Life Dispensary / Hemp Apotheke

Owner Gyana Basse has made Santa Fe home for more than three decades and has sold CBD products through her Hemp Apotheke for about five years. After getting a cannabis retail license from the state, Basse expanded her shop near Meow Wolf to include products with THC. She tells SFR she’s all about educating customers about things like terpene profiles. She says she only sells flower with terpene levels that range from 2-3%.

1330 Rufina Circle, (505) 985-5704


Mad Reefer

Mad Reefer, located next to Madrid’s iconic Mineshaft Tavern, launched in 2022 and offers a plethora of tinctures, edibles and flower. There’s a big focus on the therapeutic benefits of cannabis—and staff can help you find the best CBD and THC products—but the dispensary also sells pre-roll blends in case you need a little of both. The spacious store also has a whole host of extracts and edibles, including a line of ice cream that comes in small servings loaded with 10mg of THC. Staff says the company is working toward getting its own flower on the shelves, but for now products are supplied by local growers.

8 Railyard Lane, Madrid, (505) 221-6027


Minerva Canna

Located in a building previously home to Catamount Bar and Grille, one of Minerva Canna’s dispensaries is just around the corner from the Plaza. The OG Cerrillos location has decent off-street parking. Both spots offer coffee and a place to hangout, although they don’t allow on-site consumption.

125 E. Water St., (505) 983-8771


PurLife

Check out PurLife if you’re looking for decently priced flower with high THC content. Launched well before recreational-use sales began, PurLife garnered attention when SFR helped to reveal that former cop and previous opponent of legalization Darren White had changed his stance and opened his own weed company. PurLife has since been bought out by an out-of-state company, but Darren’s son Indy remains with the company, serving as vice president of operations.

3140 Cerrillos Road, Ste. L, (505) 303-3357


Red Barn Growers

Red Barn Growers opened in 2010 and has locations in Santa Fe and Gallup. Minneapolis-based cannabis company Goodness Growth Holdings bought the Red Barn dispensaries in 2019. The parent company also owns the Green Goods brand with locations in Albuquerque and Las Cruces.

1089 S. St. Francis Drive, (505) 780-8476


Rocky Mountain Cannabis

This Colorado company has significantly expanded its reach up north and has more recently started to capitalize on legalization in New Mexico. The company’s website shows a long list of locations around the state, including tourist destinations such as Taos and Truth or Consequences, but also in areas close to the Texas border, including Clayton and Tucumcari. Its most notable border location is in Anthony, where the dispensary is just steps away from Texas. Rocky Mountain’s distribution manager tells SFR the store should be up and running in May.

121 Sandoval St.


R. Greenleaf

One of the state’s oldest and largest cannabis companies, R. Greenleaf sits in an old bank building on West Cordova Road, complete with a drive-thru. Colorado-based company Schwazze acquired R. Greenleaf Organics ahead of recreational-use sales.

403 W. Cordova Road, (505) 962-2161


Sacred Garden

Founder Zeke Shortes began growing cannabis for medical patients in 2010. Since then, the company has become one of the state’s biggest, with locations in Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Las Cruces and Ruidoso. It made headlines months before adult-use sales began, when the New Mexico Supreme Court ruled that medical cannabis producers can claim a state gross receipts tax deduction for prescription medication. The case started in 2014 when Sacred Garden filed for a refund from the state. Sacred Garden also offers a range of in-house tinctures.

1300 Luisa St., Ste. 1, (505) 216-9686


Santa Fe Craft Cannabis

Santa Fe Craft Cannabis kicked things off with a big $1/gram sale at its location at the practical entrance to downtown Santa Fe across the street from Chicago Dog. Open seven days a week, the dispensary sells products mostly grown in Farmington. Amber Wojcik and John Flehmer of Durango, Colo. opened the location in September 2023 and also run a dispensary near Durango.

607 Cerrillos Road, Ste. A, (505) 930-5128

The Santa Fe Dispensary

The Santa Fe Dispensary is what Picuris Pueblo and THE Corp say is the first of its many planned cannabis dispensaries “rooted in deep heritage, spiritual traditions, and legacy.” The shop got special permission from the City of Santa Fe to open at a downtown location that’s within 400 feet of another dispensary, and the pueblo has been cultivating cannabis since the medical days.

100 W. Alameda, (505) 204-7314


Santa Fe Sugar Leaf

Santa Fe Sugar Leaf’s owner Sophia Lovato was born and raised in the City Different and opened her store in November 2022. As a vertically integrated company, Sugar Leaf can grow its own cannabis and make its own edibles. Lovato says she sees her fair share of locals in the store, but since it is positioned near the Plaza and counts the state museums and historic churches as its neighbors, it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise Santa Fe Sugar Leaf gets about 80% of its business from tourists.

839 Paseo de Peralta, Ste. P (505) 532-0420


Southwest Cannabis

Southwest Cannabis has three locations in Santa Fe that have been met with dozens of overwhelmingly positive online reviews. Most clients highlight friendly and knowledgeable budtenders and plenty of strains to choose from—plus in-house manufactured products, including tinctures, topicals and cactus juice offered in a few flavors. The company also has locations in Albuquerque, Española and Taos.

507 Old Santa Fe Trail, (505) 230-3788


Ultra Health

New Mexico’s top-grossing cannabis company maintains dozens of dispensaries across the state, with two in Santa Fe. Owner Duke Rodriguez has been warning for years about a potential supply shortage with recreational sales, telling SFR last fall the longstanding problem in the medical program would only be exacerbated by adult-use. Regardless, the company has big plans. Rodriguez told Albuquerque Business First in 2022 that “it’s not an unreasonable expectation for us to set a goal of controlling somewhere around 40% of the [recreational cannabis] market.”

1907 St. Michael’s Drive, Ste. F (505) 216-0898

3875 Cerrillos Road, (505) 772-0928


Verdes Cannabis

Another of the state’s largest cannabis companies, Verdes Cannabis moved into Santa Fe in February 2022, a couple blocks from the Plaza, and opened its second location on Zafarano Road in November. Rachael Speegle, who’s also a registered nurse, heads up the company as CEO. Verdes is unique in part for its emphasis on education and wellness. Nurses on staff train every budtender, which has allowed them to more deeply connect with clients and help them figure out what works best for their particular needs, Speegle says.

220 Shelby St. (505) 983-2738

3530 Zafarano Drive, Unit C


Wō Poví Cannabis

The name of this store means “medicine flower” in the Tewa language. Pojoaque Pueblo became the state’s first pueblo to open a dispensary under an intergovernmental agreement with the state. For now, flower comes from organic growing partners and is not produced in Pojoaque.
