So, you’re planning your first trip to a New Jersey dispensary… welcome! Whether you’re curious about trying cannabis for the first time, coming back after years away, or just exploring what’s new, Bud City in Newton, NJ is here to make your first dispensary visit in New Jersey simple, comfortable, and educational. As a locally owned, family-operated dispensary, our team is passionate about helping our neighbors learn, explore, and enjoy cannabis confidently. Here’s what to expect when you visit us for the first time.
Step 1: Bring Your ID
New Jersey law requires all customers to be 21 years or older and show a valid government-issued photo ID (like a driver’s license or passport). When you arrive at Bud City, our friendly front desk team will check your ID before you enter the sales floor. Quick, easy, and secure.
Step 2: Take in the Experience
Once you’re inside, take a deep breath. You’ve made it! Bud City is designed to be an inviting and educational environment, not an intimidating one.
Here’s what you’ll notice:
- The Bud Bar: A sensory station where you can see and smell real flower strains before choosing.
- Knowledgeable Budtenders: Our staff are here to guide you through everything—from different product types to dosage and effects.
- Local Vibes: We take pride in being part of the Newton community. Expect warm greetings, helpful advice, and zero pressure.
Step 3: Ask Questions (Seriously!)
No question is too simple. Cannabis can feel complicated at first, but our goal is to make it accessible and easy to understand. Our team will help you find products that match your goals; whether you’re looking to relax, focus, relieve pain, or just explore something new.
You can ask about:
- The difference between THC and CBD
- What makes a strain indica, sativa, or hybrid
- How to use flower, vapes, edibles, or tinctures
- Dosage recommendations and how to start slow
Step 4: Making a Purchase
Once you’ve explored your options, your Budtender will help you complete your purchase at the counter.
- We accept cash, debit cards and Dutchie- Pay (ATM available on-site).
- Purchases are limited by New Jersey state law, but don’t worry we’ll make sure you stay within your legal limit.
- Your products will be sealed and labeled according to NJ regulations.
Step 5: Enjoy Responsibly
When you leave Bud City, please remember:
- Consumption must happen on private property. It’s not legal to use cannabis in public spaces.
- Start low and go slow if you’re new to cannabis.
- Keep products out of reach of children and pets.
If you ever have questions after your visit, you can always come back or reach out. We’re here to help guide you along your cannabis journey.
