Becoming the first recreational marijuana shop on the Western Slope of Colorado was a major financial bonus for the Doctor’s Garden, but it appears the marijuana dispensary isn’t the only one garnering new business in Carbondale.
Businesses on Main Street in Carbondale located near the dispensary reported a spike in customers starting Jan. 15, the day the Doctor’s Garden began selling recreational marijuana.
The Carbondale Food Co-op is across Main Street from the Jalins Building, where the Doctor’s Garden is located. Cody Lee is an employee at the co-op and said there was a definite increase in people milling around town once the recreational marijuana was available.
