Cashmere doesn't have a recreational cannabis dispensary inside city limits. Green Life Cannabis is the closest legal cannabis to Cashmere — 18 minutes east on US-2, in the Sunnyslope neighborhood of Wenatchee.
The drive
US-2 east out of Cashmere, past Monitor, into the Wenatchee Valley. The road follows the Wenatchee River the whole way — a quick run with one easy lane change at the US-2/US-97 split. We're right off the split on Center Road. Free parking out front.
- From Cashmere Riverside Park: 12.8 miles, about 18 min, no toll.
- From Aplets & Cotlets factory store: 13.1 miles, about 19 min.
- From the Sunnyslope exit: 2 min once you're off US-2.
Hours that matter for the drive
- Fri / Sat — open until 10 PM.
- Sun-Thu — open until 9 PM.
- Pickup orders — last online order is 15 minutes before close, so staff can stage the bag.
If you're driving back from a Cashmere dinner on a Saturday and don't get rolling til 8, you have time. Drive cautiously.
What to bring
- A valid 21+ photo ID — Washington driver's license, out-of-state license, US passport, military ID. (No expired IDs, no photos of IDs.)
- Cash for the order. We're cash-only — every Washington dispensary is, because the major card networks won't process for cannabis. ATM in the lobby ($3 surcharge typical).
- Your phone, if you want to browse the menu on the way over. Live menu's at /menu.
What customers from Cashmere typically ask about
We see a lot of Cashmere-side regulars, both town residents and orchard families up the canyon. The common patterns:
- Locals — pre-rolls and flower for the porch. Eighths and quarter-ounces are the most common purchase size.
- Aplets & Cotlets weekend visitors — small-format edibles, low-dose gummies. Travelers often ask about "discreet" formats — vapes and small-dose gummies are the typical answer.
- Up-canyon residents — usually a once-a-week stop on the way through town for groceries. Pre-rolls + an eighth covers most of it.
If you're new to a Washington dispensary, take 10 minutes at the counter — we'll walk you through the menu. Our first-time customer guide covers the door-to-bag walkthrough if you want to read ahead.
What you can't do
Washington law prohibits consuming cannabis in any public space, including the dispensary parking lot, sidewalks, parks, and most outdoor areas. The product is sealed in an exit bag for transport, not for use on-site.
A few specifics that come up most:
- Don't open the bag in the parking lot. Consume at home or wherever you're staying privately.
- Driving impaired is a DUI under Washington law. Same as alcohol. If you've consumed, get a ride.
- You can't legally cross into Idaho with cannabis. Cannabis is illegal in Idaho. Take it home in WA.
Pair it with
Worth knowing for the drive back:
- Pybus Public Market — local food, cider, river view. 5 min south of us, easy detour before or after.
- Apple Capital Recreation Loop — the Columbia River loop for a walk after the drive.
- Leavenworth — 17 min west on US-2 if you're chaining a Bavarian-village visit onto the run.
The drive's worth it. We'll see you in 18.
