What's a 'farm to table' cannabis dispensary? One just opened in Abington
ABINGTON — Two lifelong friends spent their teens smoking cannabis tucked away in a barn. Now, the two have opened up a dispensary in Abington to live up to their childhood dreams of being cannabis entrepreneurs.
Have you ever been to a "farm-to-table" dispensary? You can visit 678 Adams St., Abington, to experience it yourself.
The rustic vibes and dark wood accents give you a farm-like feel without the cows and unruly smells.
"We're trying to avoid that Apple store feel and bring out a more homey, inviting feeling. We want our guests to feel comfortable and cozy," said co-owner Gregory MacDonald.
CannaBarn is not like your average dispensary in many ways, from the large parking lot to personal consultations in a private area if needed.
The business wants customers to feel welcomed and seen while shopping for cannabis. They don't want customers to feel rushed to make a purchase, especially if they're new to cannabis and are unsure of what to buy.
MacDonald prides itself on excellent customer service and a good product. You can skip the long lines and order directly from the internet and pick up in person.
What's on the menu?
The dispensary offers a wide range of flowers, pre-rolls, vaporizers, concentrates, edibles, accessories and CannaBarn apparel.
Edibles worth trying include Watermelon Smash gummies, Summer Peach gummies and Mile High Mint chocolate bars.

"For me and my partner CannaBarn is a play on our childhood, it's been our dream," MacDonald said.CannaBarn adds something "different to Abington."
"We're adding a beautiful aesthetic to this industrial road, a nice flower bed outside, and a vinyl drainage system. We completely revamped this whole area and plan on giving back to the community as much as we can in the future," MacDonald said.
You won't miss CannaBarn while you're driving down Adams Street. The building is huge with a green-painted exterior and large barn doors. There's nothing else like it in the area.
"We're unique in our own way," said manager Carlos Vazquez.
The business opened on July 2 and hopes to bring more positive vibes and amazing cannabis to the area.
Vazquez has a couple of heavy hitters in his rotation he suggests trying, including the Cookies pre-fall and the assortment of fruit edibles or creamy THC confections.
CannaBarn will likely have something for you no matter what you're into.
