Harrelson, sided by the mayor of West Hollywood and the head of the city’s chamber of commerce, proudly cut the ribbon at his new business venture. “Hopefully we’ve added more beauty and more good times here.

For now, the dispensary carries a variety of cannabis brands but emphasizes organic, sun-grown strains from California — his personal favorite.
