Our Story
Fairfax is home.
La Flōr is a permitted, boutique dispensary built by people who live here, on a street we have driven our whole lives.
A note on our opening
After a longer road than we first expected, we are thrilled to share that La Flōr is opening this summer. Our Fairfax storefront welcomes patients in late July 2026, with a community ribbon-cutting to follow in August 2026.
Fairfax is our home, so we want to be open about the path here. Late last year the project met some real headwinds involving the adjacent dry cleaning business next door. As we worked through it, and as neighbors raised thoughtful concerns about parking, we made a decision. Rather than do the minimum, we chose to take over the entire site. That gave us the room to provide adequate parking and to build the kind of space our town deserves. It added time and cost to our buildout, but we believe it was the right call for Fairfax.
Earlier this year, some personal family matters also slowed our progress, and we are grateful for the patience of our neighbors and supporters through that stretch.
Today we are ready to hit the ground running. We could not be prouder of what La Flōr has become, and we are confident it will be a beautiful and welcome addition to our town. Thank you for being part of the journey. We cannot wait to open our doors.
Who is behind La Flōr
La Flōr is founded by Martin Kaufman, a lifelong Fairfax resident and a longtime California cannabis operator. Martin co-founded Blum Oakland and Blum San Leandro, two of the state's better-known licensed retailers, and has spent years working inside California's regulated cannabis system rather than around it.
That background shapes what we are building here. Every product on our shelves comes through the licensed supply chain and is tested and tracked. Our team is trained to answer questions without pressure. And because Martin lives in this town, the standard for La Flōr was never "good enough for a dispensary". It was good enough for Fairfax.
La Flōr is operated by Marin Retail Ventures LLC under California license C10-0001670-LIC, at 1601 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard in Fairfax.
The space
Walnut, marble, and daylight. We wanted a room that feels closer to a well-made apothecary than a dispensary, calm, unhurried, and easy to ask questions in. Taking the full site also let us build the parking the neighborhood asked for, which was the single most common concern we heard.
