Tulip Season, La Conner and the Anacortes Ferries
Each April the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival fills the farm roads between Mount Vernon and La Conner, and the stores on SR 536 and Old Highway 99 get much busier. Go early in the day or midweek if you can. The tulip fields and display gardens are farms, which means private property, and the parks are public, so neither is a legal place to light up.
Those narrow farm roads are also a bad place to drive impaired. Washington's limit is 5 nanograms of active THC per milliliter of blood, and police can charge you below that if you are impaired. If you have an opened package in the car, put it in the trunk; an open package in the passenger area, glove box included, is a traffic infraction.
Anacortes, about 30 minutes west, runs ferries to the San Juan Islands and to Sidney, B.C. Federal rules apply on the water and state law bans using cannabis in public, so check WSF's current policy, and taking it on the Sidney sailing means carrying it into Canada, which is illegal.
Buying Cannabis in Mount Vernon: What to Bring
Bring a valid, unexpired photo ID that shows you are 21 or older; a license from any state, a passport and a military ID all work. Most Mount Vernon stores take cash and debit and have an ATM, while credit cards are rarely accepted because card networks don't allow cannabis sales. Washington allows no delivery, so you buy in person.
Per visit, an adult can buy up to 1 ounce of flower, 7 grams of concentrate, 16 ounces of solid edibles or 72 ounces of infused drinks. Read our guides to finding the best dispensary and what to buy at a dispensary if it's your first time, and our Washington marijuana laws guide for the full rules on possession, public use and penalties.
Taxes and Medical Savings in Skagit County
Recreational purchases in Washington include a 37% excise tax, normally built into the shelf price, plus sales tax added at the register. Mount Vernon prices are typical for Western Washington. Daily deals, first-visit discounts and loyalty programs are the easiest savings.

Registered patients aged 18 to 20 may shop at these stores. Medical cards from other states don't count here.

Mount Vernon Dispensary FAQ
Can I buy weed during the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival?
Yes. Stores keep their usual hours, but expect crowds in April. Using cannabis in the fields or in public is illegal, and so is driving high.
Can I smoke weed in the tulip fields?
No. The fields and display gardens are private farms, and using cannabis in public view is a civil infraction. Save it for a private home where the owner says yes.
Can I take weed on the Anacortes ferry to the San Juans?
Federal rules apply on the water, so check WSF's current policy before carrying cannabis aboard; state law bans using it in public, and you cannot take it on the international sailing to Sidney, B.C.
Which dispensary in Mount Vernon has the best reviews?
Happy Time Mount Vernon, NW Cannabis Co. and Cannazone Mount Vernon share the top Google rating on our list at 4.8 stars. Happy Time also has the most reviews.
Are Burlington and Conway dispensaries part of Mount Vernon?
Not on our list. We go by each store's license address, so Burlington, Anacortes and La Conner have their own pages.

On Old Highway 99 South, where five stores are grouped. Two more are on Memorial Highway (SR 536) and SR 20.
Do Mount Vernon dispensaries take credit cards?
Rarely. Bring cash or debit; most stores have an ATM.
Can I get weed delivered in Skagit County?
No. Washington doesn't allow cannabis delivery, so any delivery offer is unlicensed.
