The cannabis industry established many holidays over the years for cannabis enthusiasts to enjoy. While 420 Day is the most recognized cannabis holiday, Green Wednesday is just as important.
What is the Green Wednesday Holiday?
Green Wednesday is similar to Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but for cannabis lovers. This cannabis ”holiday” is celebrated each year, precisely on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. It’s meant to serve as a perfect time for people to try new cannabis products, special drops, and enjoy amazing discounts at their favorite dispensary. You can find a wide range of THC or CBD products, such as:
- Premium flower (available in a variety of strains)
- Vaporizers, such as cartridges and disposable all-in-one vape pens
- Pre-rolls and infused pre-rolls
- Edibles, such as gummies, baked goods, and chocolates
- Cannabis concentrates such as wax, shatter, live resin, budder, etc.
- Topicals and oils
Danksgiving
Danksgiving is celebrated on the weekend after Thanksgiving. Similar to any other holiday, you can gather your loved ones and enjoy the day by eating cozy foods, but Danksgiving is a celebration with a cannabis twist. Smoke your favorite cannabis or make cozy infused meals with cannabis butter, oil, or flower. Some of the most common Danksgiving meals include mashed potatoes with cannabutter, infused sauces and dressings, as well as yummy desserts such as cannabis-infused pumpkin pie.
Green Wednesday Origins
The cannabis industry is growing each year, and so is the demand for cannabis products, especially around holidays. Since a lot of dispensaries are closed during Thanksgiving, Green Wednesday was created as a perfect opportunity for cannabis lovers to buy their products before the actual holiday begins.
Green Wednesday vs. Other Cannabis Holidays
The most famous cannabis holiday is 420 Day, celebrated all over the world, not just in the United States. Another notable holiday is 710 Day, also known as Oil or Concentrates Day. While both holidays celebrate the cannabis industry and offer special drops and time-limited deals, Green Wednesday is truly a Black Friday for the cannabis community and the best time to stock up on cannabis goods.
How To Celebrate Green Wednesday Holiday
Stocking up on your favorite green goods is the best way to celebrate the holiday as a cannabis consumer, but it goes much deeper than that. By supporting your favorite dispensaries, you are directly contributing to the cannabis industry and celebrating cannabis liberation. Green Wednesday is the industry’s way of giving back to its supporters by offering amazing deals and special drops during the holiday season.
Things to Consider Before Green Wednesday
Green Wednesday is a big shopping day for cannabis connoisseurs. There are several things to consider to avoid holiday stress and have a successful shopping experience with some of the best deals of the year.
- Set a budget: To have a good shopping experience, having a budget is key. Promotions might seem tempting, but it’s always better to set the budget and plan your shopping spree around it.
- Plan beforehand: A budget and a shopping plan go hand in hand. Make a list of your desired cannabis goods, as you can forget what you actually want to buy during the holiday chaos. This way, you can shop with ease, without stressing about what to get.
- Shop on time: Make sure to pick out your goods before Thanksgiving, as most dispensaries will have special closing times. Also, note that Green Wednesday promotions are time-limited!
- Try new products: This is the perfect time to try new cannabis products without feeling stressed or breaking the bank.
- Buy from reputable dispensaries: Make sure you are ordering from safe and licensed cannabis dispensaries only.
