All Greens – Arizona’s First MMJ drive thru
This month, we are highlighting All Greens Dispensary, Arizona’s first MMJ drive thru dispensary and an overall great place serving one of our country’s most active retirement populations. We sat down with CEO Anthony Harrington to ask what it’s like serving the retired cannabis community of Sun City, AZ, a place where it’s not uncommon to see a customized golf cart full of baby boomers pull up to the dispensary seeking concentrates and fresh flower to smoke. Retirees riding their golf carts to the dispensary for meds and then to McDonalds to top of their coffee and then back to the golf course is truly a sight to see. The average age of patients at All Greens ranges from 25-83 and includes these hip seniors along with people from so many walks of life. Anthony runs All Greens dispensary with efficiency and kindness and has a great crew to back him up. They all share a passion for spreading knowledge and education to people who are new to cannabis. Here, you’ll always find a staff smiling and quick to help those who can be easily confused by their first dispensary visit.
Interview with All Greens CEO Anthony Harrington:
What is the most rewarding part of serving the cannabis community of Sun City, AZ?
Helping patients overcome their illnesses and educating the community.
How did you guys come up with the idea for a drive thru?
Once we saw the building and knowing Sun City is one of the Nation’s Largest Retirement communities, we knew a drive thru would not only be a luxury for convenience, but also an easier solution for elderly patients to obtain their medicine.
How did the Vietnamese genetics come about?
Our owner brought over the best strains from Vietnam and we crossed them with the top strains like Snoop Dogg Og and Durban Poison.
What are your signature strains made from?
VN Black = Vietnamese phenotype x Granddaddy purple VN White = VN Black x Snoop Dogg OG VN OG = VN Black x OG Kush VN Bubba= VN Black x Pre-98 Bubba Kush VN Durban = VN White x Durban Poison VN Purple = VN Black x VN White VN Daddy = VN Black x VN Black VN Skunk = VN White x OG Skunk Purple Dream = Granddaddy purple x Blue Dream Black Knight = VN Black x Blackberry Kush Specter Knight = VN Black x VN OG
What are the plans for All Greens to serve the community after recreational use begins?
We plan to serve the recreational community the same way we serve the medical community now, with passion and respect! Patients are always first and we will always provide patients with the one-stop shop with the states lowest prices making it all about the patients.
How does the drive through experience work? (What can patients expect on their first time)
The drive through works like any other ordinary drive thru, you can pull up, order your medicine and pay at the window! We will however have to verify the patient’s Arizona MMJ card and ensure that the patients is already an active All Greens patient. All new patients must first come inside the shop to first register. After your first visit, you are now able to use the drive thru!
How did you learn about the medical benefits of the plant?
I’ve always been interested in Cannabis. Self-Knowledged turned into seeking professional courses to now being 3 years in the industry and gaining frontline experience.
How do you see cannabis improve the life of your patients?
We have hundred of patients who come in daily venting their stories of how this medicine has changed their lives. Day after day, every patient has their own story but they all describe how Cannabis has changed their life for the better.
What ailments do you see the most and which products do you recommend the most frequently?
Being in one of the Nation’s largest retirement communities, we see several patients who are struggling from opioid addictions and chronic pain. Every patient is different, so we have to do our best to assist the patient in selecting the best strain for their medical requirements. This is why we have over 70 strains to choose from on a daily basis.
There’s a lot more to look forward to from All Greens dispensary to go along with great prices and quality medicine. They currently have three daily delivery routes to service the community and they are adding new products all the time. Their company Regions Extracts is releasing new concentrates and developing their own edible line that will cater specifically to the needs of their patients. All Greens is doing amazing work by introducing new patients to affordable medicine and a healthy cannabis lifestyle.
