Description

Specialties

Helping Hands Dispensary Boulder is a Colorado Recreational and Medical Marijuana store on Pearl Street. We are open to the public and provide 100% organic legal cannabis, edibles and concentrates. We have been ranked Best Dispensary in Boulder for 2013 and 2014.

We provide an outstanding and diverse selection of strains that pulls from a wide variety of genetics. Our yields are potent, dynamic and offer unique «high» profiles that come from our experimental, no-​limits approach to growing. Our vault includes a rotating variety of more than 100 sativa, hybrid and indica strains and includes the world famous Sanjay Gupta Kush.

Our growers produce all our own cannabis using only organic and sustainable methods, in soil, right here in Boulder. Not only does this insure freshness and potency but also helps uphold our commitment to natural, chemical free marijuana. This in accord with our community-​focused ethos of sustainable and healthful living and simply creates more flavorful and well-​rounded cannabis that doesn’t sacrifice taste or effect just in the name of higher yields. We also sell seeds of many of the strains we sell in our shop so you can grow your own Helping Hands Herbals buds at home.

We have an outstanding variety of marijuana infused edibles for Medical and Recreational that span the spectrum from sweet to savory, from mild to wild — and also includes gluten and sugar free options…

History

Established in 2009.

Helping Hands Dispensary was one of the first weed shops in Boulder, and has been providing top-​shelf medical marijuana and edibles since 2009.

We moved to Pearl St. from our 28th St. location in early 2013 and invite you to check out our amazing new location in Downtown Boulder right between Tahona Tequila Bistro and Two Spoons Gelato. What a spot!

We’re consistently voted one of the best dispensaries in Boulder.

The key to our success is our «patient first» approach: insuring our customers have access to high-​quality, affordable medicine while providing outstanding customer service.

We have a deep reservoir of both unique and popular genetics, allowing us to create strains that you’ll only find at our shop such as the potent Sanjay Gupta Kush.

I am guessing it’s because this place is on Pearl Street, but it was WAY too crowded when we visited. To the point where no one helped us or offered to help us. It was honestly kind of stressful — I think they should limit the number of people who can shop in there at one time and make others wait in the waiting room so they can switch places with others.
Product selection was nice, but pretty small. They sell grams for less than $ 20, which is nice, and more than I can say for other places I visited.
Overall not my favorite.

Wandered in here as a tourist & found the staff very friendly & helpful. Our bud tender knew her stuff & gave her input on the different products available. I was able to take a close look at my purchase before it was made to make sure I would be satisfied, & boy was I! Credit cards are accepted but a fee is charged so I suggest to take cash with you.

For arthritis I’ve been using CBD tinctures. I was already using Sweet Mary Jane edibles, so I figured I would stick with a brand I know and trust. Their tinctures were great.
The nice thing about CBD Tinctures are I can use them during the day.
The staff at Helping Hands is great. They are so kind and caring I look forward to seeing them.

I use their medical store. Have found quality consistently high. When they ran out of a strain I use, I went to another dispensary. The other dispensary’s product gave me a headache and next-​day hangover … not what a medical user needs … I want to feel better, not worse! So I shall continue to use Helping Hands due to product quality and friendly staff. Not a great location though if you drive, parking is iffy at 1021 Pearl… which is why I always bike to the store.

I was curious to stop in here because I heard that Colorado has now legalized recreational cannabis and I think it is great for business and medical reasons.
I support any business that helps people while providing a necessary product at a great value.
And that’s exactly what you’ll encounter here at Helping Hands. I mean, «helping» is in their name!
Would you want to go to a place that is «unhelpful»? Case closed!
Check out this recreational and medical cannabis dispensary if you are ever in the Boulder area or if you live here and you are here forever.

The location was a little weird (down a long hallway and upstairs). The staff was super friendly/​courteous and pretty well informed. The prices were also competitive. The experience exceeded my expectations.

Easy to get to– right on Pearl Street. Not a fan of the waiting room where you are seen on camera before being let in, but understandable. The staff seemed generally bored and didn’t really know alot about topicals, which was a little disappointing, since they are largely medicinal. But they had jars out for smelling, which was nice, and seemed to have a very wide selection.

Andrew helped out. Super friendly place. Id checked and right in when I walked up no waiting at 1145 am on a Friday. Got a nice sativa strain. First legal purchase and it felt great. Looking forward to the rest of the world catching on to this.

Ubaldo is awesome. He helped us through and through and answered all our questions. They have a great selection of different edibles and more. I totally recommend coming here if you’re in the area (or even if you aren’t!).
