This isn’t your average dispensary launch — it’s more like a cannabis party featuring an impressive lineup of over 20 premier cannabis brands, games, DJ Shorty spinning tunes, and giveaways. 

What to Expect

The festivities will showcase some of the best of Arizona’s cannabis culture, with brand representatives on-site to answer questions and share their expertise. 

From premium flower to artisanal edibles, you’ll find an extensive selection of products at special grand opening prices. Two of Pondy’s house brands, Canamo Concentrates and Sonoran Roots, will be showcased with Tucson’s largest available selection right here at Ponderosa.

Ponderosa Dispensary: An Arizona Native

Ponderosa opened its first location in 2013, in Maricopa. Expansion and mergers ensued and now Tucson is home to the most recent location. 

Offering deli-style cannabis, consumers can enjoy a full sensory experience, seeing and smelling the cannabis flower before it is packed in their signature sandwich bag. The shopping experience at Ponderosa is centered on friendly and informed budtenders – they’re creating a community hub where knowledge, quality, and culture converge.
