Discover cannabis culture in Olympia, WA

As the capital of Washington state, Olympia is a thriving city located on the southern tip of the Puget Sound. Its close proximity to nature offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts to explore, but the city also has plenty of cultural sights and indoor things to do. We love to visit Percival Landing Park, a beautiful waterfront park with a boardwalk and places to picnic. Brewery Park at Tumwater Falls is also a great place to hike and spend time with family. If you have more time, be sure to head to Olympic National Park and Forest for beautiful hikes and scenery. The city is also home to the wonderful Hands On Children’s Museum that is fun for all ages. While you’re in town, don’t miss the Washington State Capitol Building for a glimpse of the state’s history in a beautiful building.

As one of the first states to legalize recreational marijuana in 2012, Washington’s cannabis industry has grown tremendously over the years. The state has one of the highest cannabis tax revenues in the USA and has been a leader in the industry. Olympia is no stranger to cannabis, and there are plenty of dispensaries in the city with seemingly endless strains, edibles and quality concentrates to choose from. The state allows dispensaries to operate between the hours of 8 AM and 12 AM, but be sure to check on the dispensary’s page as hours may differ. While Olympia is surrounded by national parks and forests, it is important to remember that marijuana is still federally illegal - so toke up BEFORE exploring the great outdoors. Also, note that it is highly illegal to drive after consuming marijuana in Olympia.
