An independent cannabis dispensary that focuses on the interdependence between people, the plant, and community.

Baked by the River, an independent cannabis dispensary. At the helm are local residents, Jesse Marie and Cord – dedicated educators and activists who themselves were punished by the archaic systems that penalized both people and the plant.

Over the years, Cord formed strong relationships with small cultivators, carefully watching their growing practices and pursuit of unique genetics, as well as with artisan manufacturers who produced concentrates and tinctures.

Both work closely with local governments to support individuals and communities still negatively impacted by sponsoring expungement clinics and creating avenues to employment. They are deeply committed to working with legacy-owned and operated businesses and featuring products from social equity operators.

Baked by the River hosts frequent community events that focus on cannabis and non-cannabis plant medicine, promoting conscious consumption, representing the diverse history of cannabis culture, and featuring a variety of local artists, musicians, performers, and more. They have formed close relationships with regional native tribe members, minority and family-owned local farms, and other local businesses – with the intention of bringing together visitors and locals to safely explore and re-learn about the buried history people from all over the world have had with cannabis for thousands of years.
