Native Nations Cannabis Dispensary — Local services in Flandreau Township

I’m not one to usually post reviews, but here it is. For being the first medical cannabis dispensary in SD, I cannot complain a whole lot in that regard. The product is ok. I cannot say everything they’ve had has been amazing, but they have had some good stuff come through. The limits were understandable, the prices were understandable and the staff is friendly to a certain degree. Let’s discuss why the 3 stars instead of the 5. With the dispensary being open for over a year, there has been no positive change between limits and price, but yet they focused on redoing the parking lot and on the dispensary itself over the patients needs. SD qualified medical patients are allowed up to 3oz every two weeks and they allow 1 1/8th per day from anywhere to $40-$50 bucks. Now onto my biggest pet peeve. I went in yesterday as the dispensary that is closest to me is still in the process of testing for concentrates. When I was there, I decided to grab some prerolls and they had a “special” one. When I was clarifying that I was allowed one of those, the response I received was, “you only need one.” Now, I don’t know about you, but I don’t know why they feel entitled to tell me what is enough for me. I believe that’s my doctors job. Oh, let’s not forget the 40 minute drive I endure (and others a larger distance) and going once a month is what’s affordable for me. The reason to limit me to one should’ve been different than what was provided. My card is about to expire and I have thought long and hard about renewing it. That last trip made my decision much easier and I will not be...

I Live in Brandon, which is about a 38 minute drive to get to Native Nations from. I had already done my online doctor part, but needed my actual ID card. I had a stroke 3 years ago, and am partially handicapped. I have to use a walker to sit on and scoot around. It is very difficult for me to get into my car, and out. I got to Native Nations finally, and the security guard told me I had to go to another building 3 blocks down, but it was closed as was 5:15, and they close at 5. When I explained my situation the security guard was super nice, and said they could allow me to shoo once with my doctor paperwork. When I got inside the female security guard was also very nice, and helped me back to my car. My Budtender was Awesome as well, and very friendly. They turned what could have been a horrible experience for me, into a very positive one. And I appreciated it very much. I purchased some flower which vas very good, and some Pre Rolls, and cartridges. I got a 5 pack of Pineapple Express Pre Rolls, and they were 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I moved here from Colorado, and that was the best Pineapple Express I have ever had. When I opened the container I could literally smell Pineapple. And when I smoked it, I could actually taste Pineapple. I have never had anything like that before. Everything I had, or did at Native Nations was Amazing. I would 100% recommend...

So today was my second time coming to the store, the first time I was intrigued, the staff was superb, the products I bought were amazing (overpriced but still great)

Today I drove my happy butt there again an hour each way, and the staff seemed drained, the guy I talked to was not very talkative didn’t tell me the %’s or anything about the product I was just asking a million questions with short one word answers. In the end I got an eighth of flower, a cartridge, and 200mg of gummies for $120. I went for concentrate but the only concentrate they had was $70 for a gram??!??!?? Overall, they’re just draining people’s pockets that actually need and wanted this to be legal. The flower I received smells like some ditch weed, the first time I bought the flower was insanely good so I was okay with paying the insane price.

Disappointed in this establishment for taking advantage of the situation and charging insane prices (I checked prices of other recreational and medical places around the US) for pretty low quality products.

Will not be back. Guess I’ll have to wait until a new one opens if...
