Best Delivery Service
Earth's Healing
Thanks to the 'rona outbreak and the subsequent weed rush, Earth's Healing has had to suspend its delivery service, but they hope to have it back up and running soon. When it's operational, the dispensary delivers across the metro area for a simple flat fee: If you order between $40 and $100 in goods, there's a $10 fee. If you order between $101 and $200, there's a $5. And if you're ordering more than $200, there's no fee at all.
