A First-Timer's Guide to Buying Cannabis in Fairfax


By Martin Kaufman · August 11, 2025

Walking into a dispensary for the first time should feel welcoming, not overwhelming. At La Flōr, our boutique storefront on Sir Francis Drake Boulevard is built around helping people find what suits them, whether it is your first visit or your hundredth.

Start with the basics

To shop for adult-use products by delivery, you need to be 21 or older with a valid government-issued ID. Medical patients with a current state recommendation can shop in the storefront. Bring your ID every time, since we verify age on every order.

That split is worth understanding before you set out. Our Fairfax counter serves medical cardholders, which reflects what the Town has permitted to date. Everyone else 21 and older is fully served by delivery across Marin, with the same menu and the same prices.

Think about how you want to feel

The most common mistake a first-time shopper makes is chasing the highest number on the label. THC percentage is not a quality score, and it is a poor guide to whether you will enjoy something.

Think instead about how you want to feel and how you prefer to consume:

  • Flower is the classic option for those who like to roll or use a pipe.
  • Pre-rolls are ready to go, with nothing to prepare.
  • Vape cartridges are convenient and low effort.
  • Edibles and beverages are smoke-free and last longer.
  • Tinctures and topicals offer other smoke-free options.

Start low and go slow

If you are unsure, start with a small amount and give it time before deciding, especially with edibles. Onset varies a lot between formats, and the classic error is taking more because nothing has happened yet.

Our team is happy to walk you through categories, effects, and price points without pressure. Nobody here works on commission, and nobody is going to upsell you.

What to bring

  • A valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID.
  • If you are shopping the storefront, your current state medical recommendation.
  • That is it. Card and debit are accepted through our menu.

Come see us in Fairfax, or order delivery across Marin and we will bring it to you.
