New Yorkers are celebrating this year’s 4/20 a little differently with the help of family-owned business Strain Stars. Located at 1815 Broadhollow Road in Farmingdale, New York, Strain Stars is Long Island’s first legal recreational cannabis dispensary. It is redefining the cannabis experience and having remarkable success. Since opening in July 2023, Strain Stars has been among the highest-performing cannabis retailers nationwide. Within the first three months of opening, the dispensary made an impressive $13.3 million in revenue, with weekly sales of around $1.25 million. 

What makes Strain Stars special? Its mission is to provide an accessible, educational and sophisticated cannabis experience that shatters outdated stereotypes. Its knowledgeable staff of “cannabis sommeliers” are industry experts who guide customers in finding the perfect products for their needs. “We’re redefining the cannabis purchasing experience as a legal, diverse, and customer-focused affair,” said CEO Yuvraj Singh.

The dispensary has seen overwhelming demand, welcoming over 1,400 daily customers during the week and up to 1,700 on the weekends. Strain Stars sells a diverse selection of strains, flower, pre-rolls, vaporizers, edibles, concentrates, topicals, tinctures, and numerous accessories.  

To celebrate being at the forefront of New York’s booming cannabis industry, Strain Stars is hosting a major event on 4/20 at its flagship location, offering limited-time promotional pricing, free food and entertainment. It is inviting experienced cannabis enthusiasts and newbies alike to learn more about its products in an educational atmosphere. 

When speaking about the event, Singh explains, “This is not your grandpa’s or even your cool uncle’s cannabis experience. It’s a new era of customer-focused retail in New York. 4/20 is the perfect opportunity for Long Islanders to have their first positive dispensary experience.” For those not able to make it to Strain Stars in person, it will be offering free delivery across Long Island on 4/20 through its website and mobile app. 

“The event is us trying to show Long Island who we are and that safer cannabis is the way to go.”
