The first sign that a storm is approaching New York City isn't found in the empty bread aisles or the hardware store shelves. It is happening at the counter of your favorite local, licensed cannabis dispensary. As the weather turns, we have been humbled to see our community prioritizing their wellness routines by stocking up on our small-batch, New York-made products well before the skies darken.

We want to send a heartfelt thank you to our incredible dispensary partners and the loyal Silly Nice family who support us. Being a Black-owned, Veteran-owned, and LGBTQ-owned business in this city means everything to us, and seeing our products become a part of your 'stay-at-home' ritual is the highest honor we could ask for.

Where to Find Silly Nice New York Right Now

Our mission is to keep you supplied with the highest quality cannabis, rain or shine. We are currently stocked at some of the most respected dispensaries across the five boroughs and beyond. Whether you are prepping for a rainy weekend in Manhattan or settling in for a cozy few days in Brooklyn, we encourage you to check their menus early.

Gotham Dispensary - Manhattan

Located in the heart of the city, Gotham is a hub for high-quality, curated cannabis products. They are fully stocked with our latest batches of Frosted Hash Balls and 510 Pink Stardust carts.

The Cannabis Place - Queens

A staple in the Queens community, The Cannabis Place shares our commitment to equity and quality. Visit them to find our full-spectrum Diamond Powder and our heavy-hitting Alaskan Thunder Fuck 2G All-In-One vapes.

Why We Make Potent Products on Purpose

At Silly Nice, we are frequently asked why we focus on such high-potency products like our Diamond Powder or Frosted Hash Balls. Our philosophy is simple: we make these products strong so you can use less, not more. By providing full-spectrum, high-potency options, we allow you to achieve your desired effects without needing to consume excessive amounts of plant material.

This is about intentionality and respect for the plant. When you use a high-quality, solventless ice-water hash or a meticulously crafted infused flower, the entourage effect is much more pronounced. We want you to curate your own experience, dosing intentionally and finding that perfect balance that keeps you comfortable, especially when you are hunkered down for a few days.

New York Resilience and the Storm-Day Ritual

New Yorkers are a resilient bunch, but we also appreciate the beauty of a quiet, indoor day. The way our city prepares for a storm—balancing necessity with comfort—is a unique part of our local culture. It isn't about panic; it is about self-sufficiency and ensuring that when the wind picks up, you have everything you need to relax.

When we see our customers coming into shops, they aren't just buying products; they are curating a survival kit for the soul. Whether it is grabbing a 2G All-In-One for convenience or a jar of Frosted Flower for a special evening, these choices reflect a lifestyle that demands the best of what our state has to offer. We are so proud to be a part of those quiet moments.
