How We Verify Every Dispensary Listing
Official licence data
Stores come from the state regulator’s list of active retail licences — the WSLCB and Department of Health in Washington, the OLCC in Oregon. Unlicensed shops are never listed.
Checked details
Phone numbers, hours and websites are matched to each store by name and exact location. If a match is uncertain, we leave the field blank instead of guessing.
Monthly refresh
We re-pull licence data every month, so closed stores drop off and new ones appear. Featured placements are paid and always labelled.

About The Weed Street Journal
What is The Weed Street Journal?
An independent cannabis publication founded in 2010. We publish marijuana news, plain-English law guides, strain reviews and a directory of state-licensed dispensaries. We are not a dispensary and do not sell cannabis.
Are the dispensaries in your directory licensed?
Yes. Every store comes from the state regulator’s list of active retail licences, and we re-check that list monthly. If a licence lapses, the listing is removed.
Can I buy cannabis on this website?
No. We do not sell or deliver cannabis. Use the directory to find a licensed store, then buy in person or through that store’s own legal delivery service where state law allows it.
Who can shop at a dispensary?
In Washington and Oregon, adults 21 and older with a valid government photo ID can buy recreational cannabis. Registered medical patients may have additional options; each state guide explains the rules.
Do businesses pay to be listed?
No. Every licensed store is listed for free. Stores can pay for a Featured placement at the top of a city page, and those placements are always clearly labelled.
