Freedom Market Kelso - Recreational

I will not be returning to this establishment. More than once have I received an unfriendly budtender. A lady I think named Mandy who was short with me and didn't seem like she wanted to get off the floor to help me. Another time I walked in and they were obviously talking bad about another employee because they continued their conversation (not discreetly). It was uncomfortable and I won't be returning to a place like this. 420 Holiday has better customer service and prices.

I’m not really sure how to start this review, I guess this is how it goes. So, first off just the basics Amazing service. Excellent pricing. Frequent Customer discount program is great. Atmosphere is always chill with good tunes and friendly staff. Product selection is wide and has lots of price range to choose from. Now, on to the real review “meat”. I was on a multitude of anti depressants and anxiety meds for almost a decade. 9 years 3 months to be exact. I started switching off them a year ago. I met Brenda at that time from a friend who said “Go see Brenda, she knows her shit”. She absolutely was right. Over the past year Brenda and I, through talking (yeah, craziness right?! A human who listens. And, wants you to feel better!!) have worked out what strains (I cannot consume, smoke, etc any straight sativa strains. Spins me like a top) Hybrids are ok, but I’m still wound and down. Indica is my friend. So I chat her up. I tell her the arguments and struggles, so she could really understand what I needed. I tell her events that are upcoming so we can plan ahead. The Swift mints are a friggin lifesaver. But still, wound. And waaay down. So we dig more. Rso. .5g a day at 82%. (Holy shit right?) and I was still not right. So we started Green Revolution’s tincture. “Chill” 200mg CBD and 100mg THC. 10mg CBD 5 THC. I started this two and half weeks ago. My mood is lifted and my brain has calmed. I am sleeping better and the nightmares have let go a bit. I have a great appetite now, that is hard with the anxiety. Too wound to eat. My thought process are clearer and I am noticing they are continuing to improve. I have been able to completely remove the RSO except as a breakthrough or “really fucked day” medication. I haven’t had to touch it yet, but I know it is in the cabinet. The bottle I purchased was 49.00 and I have a little under a third of the bottle left. Compared to the $45 each week for the RSO oils it is a budget cut of almost half. I really am hopeful for the first time in over 10 years that this happy feeling I have will stay. CBD and an employee named Brenda, who let my tears flow and saw my plea to get help (and a few others, Hayden, Jeremy just a few names) are making my life good again.

Chris K is one of my favorite bud tenders. He is always friendly, informative, and just plain nice. The quality of the product is always top notch no matter what I get. Talking to Chris is great for people not super knowledgeable because he is so helpful with all questions and provides such a positive experience. Highly recommend!

Would reccomend to anyone looking for quality buds, great prices, and a crew of super friendly budtenders who know what they're doing. Today I came in and Chris K. was my budtender. I told him what I was looking for and my price. I couldn't be happier with his recommendation!! Always a great visit coming into Freedom Market!

Very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I appreciate your time & recommendations Chris.

They are still using Black Friday prices on here but you don’t get that price at the store. So the $30 1/4 it shows they are selling an 1/8 for that price. Pretty weak if you ask me.

I always enjoy visiting FM the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Today, Ellee C. was my bud tender she filled my order and gave some solid advice for the use of RSO ! Thanks!!

HANDS DOWN MY FAVORITE DISPENSARY!! Everytime I am here, it is always a great experience! The staff is the best, always helpful and friendly. I always know I am going to have a good laugh coming into the Kelso location! Great quality in product too!!

I've been going to Freedom Market in Kelso since it opened. I just want to tell you that Brenda, my budtender, is so very knowledgeable about the products. I tell her what my needs are and she has always suggested just the right product. Thank you!

love this store. Brenda one of the the budtender's is great. she knows the product and is super friendly. Thanks freedom market and Brenda.

This location is my favorite! Your staff is always helpful and provide excellent customer service! Ellee, Sam and Korey rock especially!

I'm new to cannabis and currently in my early 50's. I've lived with chronic pain for some time now and finally decided to try high CBD strains of cannabis. The Freedom Market in Kelso was my first visit to a cannabis store and didn't really know what to expect. For those of you like me who may be taken back by what you hear on the news and see on TV, Freedom Market is none of that. It is a very professional retail store with knowledgeable staff who guided me in the right direction. There is no pushing of products and they are happy to take time to explain the different aspects of cannabis (THC %, CBD %, Producers, topicals, inhalers, and how to's). No one looked as if they were high or strung out drug users...just normal people working at a job. I left there store with a good feeling that I purchased the right strains to start making a topical cream. By the way, they had three strains that had between 8% & 13 % CBD, one with the lowest THC at only 1.1%. Thanks Freedom Market for creating a good environment for first time customers like me.

I am of the "senior" age and felt very good about the answers to the questions I had. A fellow named John Cole helped me and did not make me feel silly or stupid about my questions. I REALLY appreciate that! I felt so good about this dispensary that I will be returning. Thank You.

There's always good vibes when I walk into Freedom Market. The service is very friendly & informative. Great deals & the 20% discount from Splango is nice!

First time visitor from Federal Way, WA. Everyone there was so helpful and friendly. The prices are very reasonable as well. Will definitely be coming back

always great service when i come in! the staff is very accommodating and has great recommendations. ellee is my favorite always so bubbly and fun!!

Open til Midnight, this place is great!

Love that they didn't make me feel self conscious being new to this.. answered all my questions no problem

Kristin was a major help today with helping me find creams to help soothe achy muscles. I love this shop they are very approachable and very knowledgeable.

Thank you Stephanie Smith for all your help!

I appreciate Kristin's recommendation. I have came in twice because of her service. I will absolutely be shopping the Kelso Freedom location again.

made my way out cathlamet today headed to the coast stopped by for my first time and i was impressed on the atmosphere, budtender ellee had excellent customer service made me feel very welcome and very informative when asked questions .

I love this location of Freedom Market because it has amazing products, knowledgeable staff, and it's never a long wait. Brenda & Hayden are always extremely helpful & amicable. They answer all my questions without rushing me along & always have smiles on their faces! I would recommend it to anyone!

I've noticed that Freedom Market is more expensive than some of the other dispensaries in town. However, I am more than willing to pay the premium to guarantee I'll love my product. The selection is great, been going here since they opened and not even close to having tried it all. The store itself is pretty basic, but all the products are well displayed. Service is where this place excels. I stop by here around the same time every week and have developed a friendship with their night shift employee, Sam. Unlike other places that make me feel like just another customer, Sam has learned my taste and is always suggesting premium products that fit my preferences perfectly. No other dispensary in town has employees that actually know my name. The only bad thing I'll say is they can't seem to keep my favorite strain, Lemonder, on the shelf.
