Dragonfly Wellness 711 S.State Street, Salt Lake City, UT

Dragonfly Wellness was the first Utah Pharmacy to open its doors to patients in the Beehive state and have been bringing top-quality products to the 7,000 estimated state patients since. We’ve been visiting their location at 711 S. State Street often and trying out their various products – especially their flowers grown by Robert Allen. There’s no better way to celebrate 420 than by visiting your local dispensary, and we can finally do that here in Utah. They’ll have quite the roster of flower and will be releasing five new ones to celebrate 4/20!

It can be a little overwhelming when you go in and need to make these types of decisions. Like Tommy Chong prophetically stated:

responsibilities are heavy responsibilities.

At Salt Baked City we’ve put in the hard testing and dove into terpene cocktails that Dragonfly has on display and came up with our official recommendation for your 420 flower. We’ll be celebrating with Flo White, an exceptionally potent strain that is a cross between Purple Thai and Afghani. This well-balanced flower has both relaxing and uplifting effects to give you that perfect 420 daytime feeling. Anticipate a happy calm from these trichome covered flowers as you flow into the day.

Through May, the clinic is offering a reduced price of $150 for evaluation appointments (normally $199).

Spaces are limited and must be reserved in advance. Visit their website today and book your appointment, or call 801-448-9990 to speak with a cannabis expert and discuss qualifying conditions and what they need you to bring to your appointment.

There’s no better way to spend this 420 than protecting yourself and loved ones – get your medical cannabis card today and join the good fight! This April 20th is an historic one for Utahans, and if you’re celebrating chances are it’s legal!

Sure, this year was already going to be different than years past in the Beehive State, but this time COVID-19 is truly bringing the bummer. Utah isn’t alone. Notable 420 events around the country such as San Francisco’s famous ‘Hippie Hill’ gathering are off limits this year. Free reggae concerts at Denver’s 16 th Street Mall are off the table, and the infamous Liberty-Bell Smoke Out in Philadelphia has been postponed
