I am a new MMJ patient, and after a lot of research, I decided the first dispensary I wanted to visit was Harvest of Scottsdale. I was apprehensive, but everyone from the receptionist to budtender, to cashier were all very courteous, friendly, and helpful.
I suffer from chronic unrelenting pain from a car accident in 2001, and most recently underwent two emergency spinal surgeries due to cauda equina syndrome. Unfortunately, I also suffer from complex post-traumatic stress disorder which exacerbates my sleep disorders, which in turn makes my pain worse. I am caught in a vicious cycle. A few months ago I decided to wean myself off of all the narcotics so my pain levels have been horrible. I feel like I spend my entire life just trying to find a position to be in, which hurts the least. This is no way to live, so I decided to look into medical marijuana and took the steps to get my MMJ card.
Being a complete medical cannabis novice I was overwhelmed by all of the strains, and methods of consumption. My Budtender was Ahlana (my apologies if I misspelled your name) she listened thoughtfully to all of my questions and concerns and together we worked out a good starting place for me. She completely understood my apprehension about not liking the "high" feeling I associated from the pot I smoked as a teen. I do not like feeling out of control, which makes my anxiety skyrocket, and in turn, leads to paranoia. Based on my desire to control pain & insomnia without anxiety, and aversion to smoking, she suggested the Dream Steam pen and two excellent starter blends to try.
I left the store with two oil cartridges (one was free, thanks!) of JillyBean and Northern Lights, a bottle of CBD oil, and a very low dose edible (5 mg) Kiva Terra Bites. Ahlana gave me great advice about how to use these items, and the best starting doses, based on time of day. She also told me I could call her at any time if I needed help or had more questions.
Overall my experience here was fantastic. The setting was beautiful and calm, and I felt very comfortable talking to my Budtender.
Thank you Ahlana, and Harvest for making my first dispensary visit a good experience. I will be back!

I don’t know why anyone is putting lower than 5 stars on harvest in Scottsdale. The staff is always friendly, honest and knowledgeable. They have great deals that change daily but you can check for the week ahead. I drive 30 minutes to get flower from here. Sometimes they have long lines but that’s how you know it’s quality. I would say harvest of Scottsdale is top 3 in the valley for bud.

I’ve been to this location twice now and I’ve enjoyed the selection as well as the quality of the flower available. The bud tender recommended lemon head and it was awesome. Just wish your prices were a little bit lower but we’ll see.
Dispensary response:

We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed Lemon Head! If you sign up for our email or text notifications, you can receive updated flower specials at Harvest. We also have discounted flower on our Snap Sale tier at all times. Hope to see you again soon!

my 1st visit and it's during covid. The line outside moved fairly quickly. once inside we are told the price, pay and handed a sealed yellow bag. They told me the price and I thought I got one hell of a deal and I did. however I wasn't told that they weren't able to fill my order completely and that was why it was so cheap. I didn't find out till I got home and opened the bag to find that my order was missing items. I didn't get charged for the ones I didn't receive, so that is good. But I would have preferred someone had said hey we are out of the prerolls or we can only do 1gram not 2 grams in the 2 flavors you wanted more of. Based solely on this visit, I won't return till I can go inside and see exactly what I am getting and make sure the ones I need extra in are able to be filled. I will definitely go again when the place opens for walk-ins because the inside is HUGE and they have a open floor plan with multiple display cases and the people I did talk to were very friendly. Place is clean. I did not see anyone that was obvious security, inside or out but felt safe in the surrounding area and inside.
Nice folks

I hadn't been back since rec started; was using GRASSP & going to medical only places, however, I wanted some Ice Cream Cake & decided to try it out again. I went on a Saturday & arrived right at 7:10am. There are 2 separate lines with only one cashier at the Medical area. The line was small but steady on the Rec line, and the dude in front of me was taking FOREVER. The cashier over at Rec saw that and called me next. I wish I remembered her name, but she provided stellar service and I left happy. My advice is to get there early and get out before the crowds come.
I will be back.

Used to be my dispensary of choice. Not so sure, anymore. The staff and service are top-notch. The atmosphere is near-clinical, but somehow inviting. And until recently, the flower at least felt carefully selected. My most recent visit, I picked up a number of strains, mostly quarters. Unlike the display flower, what I recieved (nearly the entire ounce and a half across eight varieties) was so wet that the sticks would not snap, the flower wouldn't grind (unless you set it out to air for 2-3 hours, but when you have pets, that's more than a little tricky) but instead compressed into tight little balls, and was utterly useless out of a vaporizer. The worst part is that I've got it all stored with 2-way humidity packs (Boveda), hoping to lower their moisture content, and I had four of my strains, totaling 3/4oz remaining, thoroughly mold over. I'm not sure how much mold I inhaled, loading bowls in the dark with a migraine, but I've been coughing persistently for a couple weeks and my asthma refuses to chill out. I didn't physically touch the flowers while moving them from bags to jars, so I doubt I was the source of contamination. My storage jars were new, so I doubt they were the source of contamination. Ymmv, but I'll be asking how dry any given batch is, from now on, if I even come back.

They never have stock for medical patients …
since Arizona legalized recreational use they completely threw quality and allotment out the window. It’s essentially first come first serve and the lines are in favor of recreational users NOT medical oriented don’t really seem to care or have an issue with the fact that they are almost ALWAYS out of stock of the majority of items and lack a good balance of Sativa, Indica, AND Hybrid. .
I paid almost $400 for my medical card and all I get for it is “I’m sorry we’re out of stock “ “sorry we don’t have any control of what’s ordered” “sorry due to the abundance of recreational response all we have is venom”
NEWSFLASH venom f*{^{ing sucks.
And no one likes it and only buys it for the price. Which is another point none of the quality I’ve received is worth the amount I’ve had to pay for it AS A MEDICAL PATIENT. I thought I was in favor of the legalization but it seems like the quality, abundance, and customer service surrounding it has taken this biggest plunge and there isn’t anything we as the consumer can do about it besides leave a review.
I hope management takes their head out of their arse and prioritize the stock/inventory to better suit the field of customers their receiving.

It would be cool if medical patients didn’t have to deal with rec heads. Taking up inventory, raising prices all for the ones who were terrified to back the program. Arizona medical program is now broken in exchange for part time rec heads. Congrats

I can't believe I really just spent over 70 bucks on an 1/8th, this shit better knock me out until Monday. Staff is great though, really classy place, one of the best laid out dispensaries in town; Bay area type vibe. Bay area type prices too though, damn, and no mention of the supposed third time med discount (first time I'd been to this location but third trip to Harvest in general). Thank Ra home-growing is legal again & I can grow around two zips of ultra mega kill for about the same price, just a few more weeks... caveat: 23yr professional indo' grower & consultant, Germany to Hawaii & damn near everywhere in between, plus growing tippy top tier is damn near impossible at true commercial scale.

A guys stole 100$ from me cause I didn’t take all my money from the atm. Budtender said it’s all good, they have cameras to figure out if anyone found/stole it. Wouldn’t ya know the infantile balding 50 man child to the right of me stole it and was scared to get in trouble by seeing it was him on the camera lol. Thanks harvest for making a their feel bad and return the money and providing some super amazing biskanti.
This is my preferred dispensary in the area. Check in is fast, staff are friendly and helpful. I love the larger waiting area where you can look at products and browse the menu of what’s available. Super relaxed atmosphere, 10/10 would recommend.
Harvest is the most accessible dispensary in my area, and their wide range of brands and products seems overwhelming, but their budtenders are all pros that know what they are selling.
Both times I went in blind (not going on Leafly first), and after explaining my symptoms (depression, anxiety, and small fiber neuropathy), the tenders were able to find me a variety of sativa strains that met and exceeded my expectations!
Nebula, by a mile, is my favorite strain that has been offered by Harvest. The giggles never stop, the love pours out, and she just makes you feel whole. With small fiber neuropathy, the searing pains that normally radiate on my skin and mostly on my feet and hands, totally vanishes.
Harvest will steer you in the right direction, especially for newbies like myself. Their state-of-the-art facilities and elegant show-rooms may be intimidating, but the heart of the company is behind the counter.

Walking into the lobby I feel like I'm walking into a museum reception area, and when I look through the wall of thick glass into the cardholders-only area, it looks like a museum gift shop. It's almost like an Apple store but less crowded, at least the three times I've been there. They don't assign you to a salesperson who escorts you to a station; instead, they let you walk in on your own and wander around the tables in the center of the large room and the shelves that line the walls. There are salespeople behind a long counter like the Genius Bar at Apple stores. They will help you if you want, but if you don't need any help, you can sniff and look at their flower thru a magnifier and write down which ones you want. The fact that they have flower samples in containers with little sniffing holes on top and silicone hole covers makes it so you don't leave the dispo smelling like weed. At the end of your browsing, you go to the counter and they will get your stuff and ring you up.

These guys are awesome! Always super fast and friendly. Do yourself a favor and pre order all your stuff before to skip the lines during the busy times.
Online order was correct. Pleasant interaction. Friendly service
It appears that ordering from Leafly's website does NOT connect with Harvest of Scottsdale. My order was not ready as they stated the order did not go over to them. So they had to pull the products while I was there, and then they only had 4 Baklava, and not the 5 I had ordered. Told me to order on their website going forward.

This is the best dispensary in Arizona, hands down. Not only do they have a friendly and secure waiting room but they also have the highest quality flower and dream steam cartridges at the absolute best prices.
Knowledgeable and friendly staff on top of a clean and modern facility has me coming all the way from Flagstaff to shop here.
After Leukemia and a stem cell transplant, I must have the highest quality Cannabis and Harvest provides test results without even having to ask.
I've been to most dispensaries in the state, believe it or not, and Harvest in Scottsdale is #1.
I was delighted to see that Harvest is The Source in Las Vegas!
Thank you guys for always providing quality, pesticide and mold-free Cannabis as well as professional service, I seriously love you guys!!!!
6 stars!
Dispensary response:
If you are not the sweetest person, I do not know who is! I can not believe you travel from Flagstaff. You must really love Harvest. I hope you are doing well, healthy and happy. It seems you have been through a bunch, and I am so happy you trusted Harvest along the way. Have a wonderful day! You deserve it :)

I came in with tons of questions. Kris said hello immediately and was happy to help, polite and professional. I'm an cancer patient and I could tell he was sincere and concerned with my needs. . To say I was totally blown away by his knowledge and recommendations would be an understatement. After learning his recommendation for a sativa flower would be "Royal Lemon OG" and not being familiar with this strain he informed me I was the first customer to purchase it at this location and gave me a complete description. I tried it immediately after arriving home. OMGosh, it does exactly for a "great" sativa is supposed to do. Get you moving!! I loved the favor (see for yourself) everything about this new strain recommended by Kris. Now it is a go to when my back is killing me and I feel like giving up, I can finish what I started. Thank you so much Kris. I will look for you everytime I visit.

This is my ‘go-to’ place and been going here for almost 6 or 7 years. The service I was given on Monday evening was especially amazing! Just had a bad day and she was so sweet with understanding and listening to me and I felt like I was the only one in the building! I’m drawing a blank on her name because if I would assume would be short term memory loss. LOL But she is gorgeous with beautiful long hair and the best eye makeup I have ever seen! I adore her!!!!
this place has fire.
Great staff, awesome flower!
