Greener Pastures Collective is located on South Robertson;
just a quick hop off Wilshire Blvd., in the Beverly Hills area. Look for the green
letters "GPC" with a green cross on the corner side of this white building.
There are meters on Robertson and there is free parking on one side of the side
street, which the front door of this building faces. Make sure you read the parking
signs as not to get a parking ticket. I just got one at a different "Green
Room." Hope that club has us review both of their clubs, as that would cover
the cost of the ticket. The parking at GPC is not too bad; however, we want to
remind you to always read the parking signs when parking on the streets near dispensaries;
even, perhaps especially if your medicated stoner of a friend who brought you
to the club tells you to park there. To the side of the gated door is a window
with GPC writing on it. You enter into a very small reception room with a small
verification window. Pass your credentials through the bars; get buzzed into the
mid-to-smaller sized waiting room, which has a couch, table, and larger verification
window. Then just chill... until they buzz you through to the room that holds
the medz for the ill. Oh snap, I busted a rhyme in my review... and I am not through,
coming up next it is the medi-cation---room.
No I am not going to Rhyme the rest of the GPC review, but might consider it for
a future reviews if you tell all your friends about WEED
CONNECTION DOT COM. When we visited last, been here twice, there was a hallway
between the medication room and the waiting room. They informed us of their plans
to remodel this area. This place is still fairly new and fairly chill with recently
painted blue walls that smell like chronic more than fresh paint. The medication
room is set up with a nice granite bud bar. There were some chill pictures, postcards
and artwork on the wall. The bar is equipped with a big light-up magnifying glass
so you can get to know your meds up close and personal before you take them home
for some alone time. There are printed menus at the bar that display constantly
changing prices and selection. The flowerz are stored in jars, which rest on shelves
behind the bar. Tell the bud tender what you want to see and they will be happy
to grab it for you. They use chopsticks to handle these dank nuggetz.
The medication at GPC is top quality and mostly organic. The flowerz here are
cured just right for some, but personally I like them a little more fresh and
sticky. They had some bomb Grand Daddy Purple, Bubba OG, Lavender, AF Gooey x
Trainwreck, and I really loved the Snow Cap. I think that was my favorite, but
we also did two strain reviews for this club >> see the Strains section for Purple
Skywalker and Blackberry.
Prices range from $18-23/gram, $50-70/eigth, $100-140/quarter, $200-280/halfO,
and $350-$450/Ounce... not bad, especially given the location. They also have
consistent supply edibles from Wolf Dank Pot, OG and Purple Kush hash and beautiful
$10 clones. If it's not busy then you should ask about their garden; peep the
end of the Wild
Honey Flower video in the Edibles section or on YouTube
user WeedConnection.
All in all, Greener Pastures Collective (GPC) has a really good thing going on
for such a new club. The staff is young, energetic, and knowledgeable about the
entire lifecycle of our flowerz. They have great contests and giveaways, decent
pricing and more than decent selection. They have a lot of potential and we look
forward to seeing what else they can do with this place. FYI there will be a sick
vapor lounge after they remodel the bar. Check them out if the area of Beverly
Hills is where you wanna be. Get medicated; smoke some tree! Tell them about this
review... Visit GPC, peace, I'm through!
