If you’re a registered medical marijuana patient or caregiver in the Champlain Islands, Milton, Colchester, or in the Burlington, VT area, getting access to high-potency medical weed has been harder than it should be. Vermont’s largest medical dispensary closed over a year ago, and since then, patients across the region have been left with fewer options. At Lake Effect Vermont we鈥檙e stepping up to help better serve our community!
We are now licensed to sell medical marijuana, serving registered patients and caregivers under Vermont’s Medical Use Endorsement (MUE) license program. That means patients from across Grand Isle County and the surrounding area now have a local option for medical-grade pot, without a long drive to find it.
Shopping medical marijuana at Lake Effect Vermont comes with real benefits. Vermont medical cannabis patients are completely exempt from the state’s cannabis excise tax and sales taxes, which translates to savings of 20-21% compared to adult-use shoppers. Registered patients can also purchase up to two ounces of flower at a time, and our budtenders have completed the Vermont Cannabis Control Board’s Enhanced Budtender Education training to help you find the right product for your needs.
If you’ve been searching for a medical marijuana dispensary near me in the Champlain Islands area, we’re your closest option, right here in South Hero, VT. We’re convenient for patients coming from North Hero, Grand Isle, Isle La Motte, Alburgh, Milton, and Colchester.
