Happy Pride Month from The Green Cross!

Dear Green Cross Members, Friends & Family,
We hope you all enjoyed a wonderful and relaxing Memorial Day Weekend! As a reminder, we recently extended our hours of operation from 8 AM to 9 PM daily, 7 days a week to further accommodate our members going forward.

We are pleased to announce that The Green Cross won the 2021 Talk of the Town Award! Thank you for continuing to support our business and making it possible for us to win this prestigious award year after year. We couldn't have done it without you!

The Green Cross recently updated and digitized our Member Handbook & Agreement to make it easier for new and existing members to access helpful information about our organization, cannabis, its benefits, and safe usage. We strongly believe in staying informed, getting involved, and most importantly, knowing your rights. For this reason, there is a whole section dedicated to knowing your rights. If you would like to learn more, please review our Membership Handbook & Agreement.

As we announced in our last newsletter, our entire staff is fully vaccinated against COVID-19 for the protection of our valued members and community. As an essential business, we made this a priority in an effort to foster a safe environment for you to purchase cannabis in-person. Now that vaccinations are available to 12 and order individuals, we encourage all our members to get vaccinated too. We all need to do our part to slow the spread of COVID-19. For more information on getting vaccinated, please visit Vaccines.gov. Let's put an end to this virus once and for all!

While the CDC recently released new guidelines on indoor mask wearing, The Green Cross will continue to follow safety protocols, require masks inside our facility, and practice social distancing both inside and outside our storefront location. Members are no longer required to wear mask while waiting to enter The Green Cross, however, you must maintain 6 feet between you, other members and our staff, and put your mask on when entering the facility. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Got change?! Due to the national coin shortage caused by the pandemic, The Green Cross has a limited supply of coins while we continue to operate as a cash-only business. In order to continue to provide change to our members, we ask that anyone with spare change lying around exchange it for paper bills or in-store credit. Our staff can assist you with counting the coins and translating them to the equivalent dollar amounts. In the event you have a large amount of coins to exchange, there might be short processing delays. However, we have a state-of-the-art counting machine to minimize extended wait times. If you're short on time, you're more than welcome to drop off your coins and we'll give you store credit or make a cash payment available for pick-up on your next visit.

Father's Day is just around the corner and we've got you covered! What better way to treat the dad figures in your life than with their favorite cannabis products? We are offering fantastic specials, price drops, and many new products to try this month. Keep reading for more details!

The Green Cross is proud to be a LGBTQ-owned business that supports our queer San Francisco communities. We love celebrating Pride Month each year by uplifting LGBTQ voices, honoring LGBTQ culture and supporting the rights of our LGBTQ communities everywhere. We remember the many lives lost to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and commemorate the Stonewall riots of June 1969. We owe much of our country's success to the many LGBTQ pioneers and innovators throughout history. Your impact has been monumental and we honor each and every one of you. We hope you all have a wonderful time celebrating Pride Month!

In celebration of Pride Month, we have created a limited edition Pride T-shirt available for $14.99 + tax. All proceeds from the sale of these t-shirts will go toward our goal of donating $11,000 to the following LGBTQ organizations for the month of June:

Equality California - EQCA.org
Equality Federation - EqualityFederation.org
Glide Foundation - Glide.org
Human Rights Campaign - HRC.org
LYRIC Center for LGBTQQ Youth - LYRIC.org
San Francisco AIDS Foundation - SFAF.org
San Francisco LGBT Center - SFCenter.org
Shanti Project - Shanti.org
Transgender Gender-variant and Intersex Justice Project - TGIJP.org

Thank you in advance for supporting our efforts and Happy Pride!

We hope you will join us in celebrating and recognizing the emancipation of those who had been enslaved in the United States this Juneteenth (June 19th).

House reintroduces bill to decriminalize cannabis, create social equity programs

Picture
After voting overwhelmingly last year to decriminalize cannabis at the federal level, congressional leaders reintroduced a bill Friday to strike marijuana from the list of controlled substances and invest in communities disproportionately affected by the so-called drug war.

The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act of 2021, also known as the MORE Act, would also eliminate criminal penalties, clear criminal records and create social equity programs focused on repairing damage to individuals and communities impacted by decades of prohibition. Read more »


​Smoke Screen

Picture
It’s easy to assume everyone who smokes weed is a lefty. Take a stroll down Haight Street toward Golden Gate Park and you’ll see reminders everywhere of the connection between cannabis and the 1960s counterculture. This neighborhood was the epicenter of the Summer of Love, where hippies gathered to sing their flower power anthems in a haze of pot smoke.

In the neighboring Castro District, Brownie Mary laid the groundwork for the compassionate use movement, selling potent baked goods to gay men suffering from a highly stigmatized and misunderstood disease that some conservative Americans still blame on “lifestyle choices.” Read more »


Tax guide: Best city to buy legal weed in California

Picture
America overthrew the British over some unfair taxation. Today, California cannabis consumers seem due for a mini revolt of their own.

Weed lovers can save hundreds of dollars per year on legal herb by avoiding excessive “local cannabis business taxes” in California. These complex local charges have gouged consumers at the dispensary sales counter since 2018, when the state switched over from medical marijuana to adult-use pot under Proposition 64. Read more »


R.I.P. Delta-8 THC: Why States And DEA Want It Banned

Picture
Delta-8 THC had a good run. People made money, customers were happy, and it all seemed legal to boot. Like all good things in life, states and the DEA are doing everything in their power to ensure that delta-8’s run comes to an end. Let’s talk about why.

For those of you who may not have been paying attention, delta-8 is one of many, many cannabinoids in cannabis (marijuana and hemp) plants. Unlike CBD, it gets you high. It’s not usually present in high volume in cannabis, so it’s usually derived by converting hemp CBD through chemical processes, and can’t be legally derived from marijuana under federal law. Read more »


From all of us here at The Green Cross, we wish you a very happy Pride Month, Father's Day, and Juneteenth! We hope to see you at The Green Cross soon!

Sincerely,
Kevin Reed
Founder & President
The Green Cross
