I woke up that morning with a migraine. You know when they come on WAY before you open your eyes, it’s sure to be a rough day. For me, and thousands of people like me, pharmaceutical medications only make symptoms worse. I groan my way out of bed and head to the local dispensary to get the medication I need to make myself comfortable.
When I got to In Harmony Wellness, I was greeted by name by the same receptionist that’s always there. The Co-owner, Tina Valenti, usually smiles warmly when I pop my head into her office but this time, she frowns and motions me inside. Apparently, I looked like I felt. I step inside the business office and its just what you would expect. A giant whiteboard scribbled with ideas, a foreboding looking safe and a desk riddled with paperwork, where Tina is digging through drawers.
She hands me a packet “It’s my last one, but you look like you could use it.” She says, that comforting smile returning to her face. It’s that EmergenC fizzy drink in raspberry, coincidentally my favorite flavor. It promises to deliver 1000mg of vitamin C straight to the chin of whatever is dragging me down.
I slump into a chair as she rattles off a list of things that may help my obvious misery. She offers a couple of herbal remedies, but not the kind you would think. Traditional Chinese Herbs and a product called “Cold Snap.” She slaps down a handful of throat lozenges and reminds me not to use them without eating first. “They can make you sick to your stomach” She warns. I make a meager effort at humor by announcing that she might also have something that helps with nausea, alluding to the room down the hall where jars of high-grade medical marijuana, medicated edilbles and tinctures are stored and dispensed.
Without going into the politics of everything and without standing on any podiums or shouting from any treetops let me say this, I need dispensaries. Unable to grow my own because of allergies and arthritis, I need to utilize the talents of people who are capable of such things. I need to know that there is medication available for me, be it for a wicked migraine or for my auto-immune disease. I need the option to have tincture if I cant smoke or hash if I just need to sleep. I need edibles, a fine art I have yet to master, for when there are young children in the house and smoking is out of the question. I need quality medication and as a patient in Colorado, I need Care-giving dispensaries.
In Harmony wellness has several great qualities that I have yet to find anywhere else. First and foremost, they are consistent. Co-owner Derek Cumings, has unparalleled talent for turning medication into delicious goodies with unrivaled medicinal benefits. Their meds are always great, but more importantly, their edibles always taste the same. The Cannabits hard candies will taste the same today as they did a month ago. The tincture will be the same potency and though the candies inside the brownies may change, the taste and quality never have.
Secondly, they genuinely care about you as well as the community around them. They ask about your symptoms and even recommend specialty products to treat what ails you. They take care of their neighbors with food drives and community outreach programs. (Dont forget to bring in some canned goods for the Windsor Food bank, a drop box is located right inside their front door. )
Lastly, their prices are so fair that you almost feel like you are ripping them off. A rare emotion when dealing with this costly medication.
In short, there is something different about In Harmony Wellness. Something Sincere. I’ve claimed to have a favorite dispensary before, its true. But as they say, time reveals the truth and while I support my former favorites in spirit, I simply cannot rely on them being consistent with their product. In Harmony provides the consistency I am looking for, while retaining the high quality I desire. Reading the bills that have been proposed by Romer and Massey, I think mostly of In harmony. Should legislation take these legitimate, patient focused care-giving businesses out of our community, it will mostly hurt the patients they strive so hard to care for.
