Below, you'll find answers to some of our most frequently asked questions to make your visit as smooth as possible.
Maine has a wide variety of legal, licensed adult-use and medical dispensaries. You can find the most affordable cannabis at our Sweet Dirt dispensaries in Eliot, Portland, and Waterville. We offer a range of low-cost cannabis options without compromising on quality. Plus, our products are free of pesticides, fungicides, and harmful pathogens.
All of our dispensaries located in Maine are recreational, serving adult-use customers over the age of 21. According to Maine’s cannabis laws, adult-use cannabis and medical cannabis may not be dispensed from the same facility; therefore, we only sell to adult-use customers.
As mentioned in the official laws, adults may possess up to 2.5 ounces (or 71 grams) of cannabis. This 2.5 oz limit includes no more than 5 grams of concentrate. Learn more about other rules and regulations you need to know about recreational cannabis in Maine on our blog.
Yes, our Eliot, Portland, and Waterville dispensary locations have a loyalty program for frequent customers. Earn points on every purchase to unlock exclusive discounts on future orders. For every dollar you spend, you'll receive five cents in loyalty points. Veterans enjoy even more benefits, earning ten cents per dollar spent.
It’s best to store your cannabis in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and moisture. We recommend using airtight containers to preserve freshness and potency. Don't be afraid to ask your budtender for more precise instructions based on your purchase.
If you’re new to cannabis, the rule of thumb is to “start low and go slow.” In other words, start off with a low dose, such as 2.5 mg of THC, and avoid increasing the dosage until the next time you choose to consume. Our Maine cannabis dispensary staff can help guide you to the right product, whether it’s an edible, tincture, or pre-roll.
In Maine, public consumption of cannabis is illegal, meaning you cannot smoke or consume cannabis in public places, including parks, sidewalks, or beaches. We recommend consuming cannabis only on private land, such as your own home or a friend’s residence.
If you’re staying in an Airbnb or hotel, be sure to follow the rules provided by your host or accommodation. Always ask ahead to ensure you're in compliance with their guidelines.
As stated on the Maine government website, it is illegal to leave Maine with any cannabis or cannabis products – medical or adult use. Additionally, since cannabis remains illegal at the federal level, this includes air travel. You should not bring cannabis on any flights, even if they originate from Maine or you are flying to another legal state.
With that being said, TSA agents and law enforcement do not actively search for these products without cause. Still, to be as safe as possible, we recommend consuming your products within Maine.
Yes, any adult over 21 with a valid government-issued ID can purchase cannabis at our adult-use dispensary, whether you’re a resident of Maine or a visitor.
As an adult-use-only dispensary, we cannot provide special discounts for medical patients. However, with some of the best prices in the state, we can still serve any medical patient above the age of 21. Feel free to ask for the guidance of our budtenders for more information.
For your convenience, all of our Maine dispensary locations are equipped with ATMs. At our Portland dispensary, the ATM is conveniently located by the entrance, just before security. In Eliot, you'll find the ATM inside the facility, and at our Waterville location, it’s positioned toward the back of the store.
Due to federal banking restrictions, we can only accept cash or debit at our Maine dispensary. If you’re in a pinch, we have an ATM on-site for your convenience!
We have three adult-use dispensary locations in Maine: Eliot, Portland, and Waterville. Get more information to plan your trip on our locations page, which includes hours of operation, contact information, and more.
Medical cannabis is available to patients with qualifying conditions, while recreational cannabis is available to all adults 21+. Our dispensaries in Portland, Waterville, and Eliot specialize in recreational cannabis.
