A good night’s sleep is a treasure many people struggle to achieve. Without quality sleep, our emotional and physical well-being declines. There’s mounting evidence that cannabis for sleep can help you achieve better rest.
Over centuries, especially the last decade, cannabis and its accessories have evolved. The hookah originated in India, the wooden pipe in Europe and now there are various options for each accessory diverse as the individuals that use them. It is more important than...

Walking the talk in cannabis social equity isn’t an easy task. Everyone involved in cannabis has an opinion about what social equity means and what needs to be done to right the wrongs done by cannabis prohibition and overzealous policing. As we see it, social equity acknowledges that systemic inequalities exist in our industry and community. A successful social equity plan and program works to eliminate the inequities and ensures that everyone has access to opportunities and positive outcomes.

The hot summer sun, majestic fall colors, glistening winter snow, and the rebirth of spring give us SO much opportunity to enjoy outdoor adventuring with cannabis. There’s nothing like getting outside and moving your body with a nice clean high. Since you’ll be in a different environment, the rule to follow is “start low, go slow” with any type of consumption. We believe outdoor adventuring is more pleasurable with cannabis, but getting too high could make you the main character in a cautionary tale.
Throughout the summer, the Pharmhouse Pham puts together a Bike ‘n Blaze! On a beautiful Saturday morning, we meet at the Pharm, toke and mingle, then hit the Kent trails. As a group, we ride through Millenium Park to enjoy the beautiful scenery with a great mellow...
“Indica or Sativa?” This question about cannabis has dominated weed conversation for quite some time.

You’ve probably noticed that we proudly fly a Pride flag from the front porch of Pharmhouse Wellness, and for us, it’s more than an expression of support for the LGBTQ community. It’s our way of saying thanks to the queer community for what it has done for us.

While we always have many edibles to choose from in our store, sometimes it’s fun to experiment and make your own. We’re all for people trying new things with cannabis, and in this blog, we’re going to talk about how to make cannabutter, that’s a key ingredient to use in your favorite recipes.
There is a time of year that every Michigander looks forward to, and it’s finally here. The snow has melted, the sun is rising earlier and setting later, and people are spending more time outside as the temperature rises and new growth emerges.
Almost every day at Pharmhouse Wellness we meet people who are traveling here looking to buy cannabis. While more and more Midwestern states are legalizing, people from Indiana, Ohio and Wisconsin turn to the Mitten for legal cannabis. Michigan is also one of the few states with a reciprocal medical marijuana program—which means people who hold med cards in another state are welcome to shop here in Michigan.
For our 420 celebration ‘22, Pharmhouse coordinated and hosted a stand-up comedy night inside the Toke Tent (21+ Only). We had Trevor Swanson as our Emcee, and four local standup comedians put on a 15 minute stand-up performance. The comedians that performed were Nina...
