Can I Get Weed Delivered in Illinois?

The short answer: No, at least not yet.

Two Illinois House Bills and one Senate Bill are pending to legalize delivery of medical and adult-use cannabis and to set up the licensing infrastructure for storefront and non-storefront marijuana delivery services. So, delivery is most likely on its way at some point, but, good news! You can help move it along.

The Illinois chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, (NORML) has eyes on the legislation of marijuana delivery in the Land of Lincoln. You can follow these bills through the legislative process and take action by writing a letter to help legislators prioritize these needed weed bills.

You can also sign up for updates by checking the box at the bottom of the page. The legalization of cannabis has always moved forward thanks to activists. Count yourself among them and make your voice heard!

Wana 1:1 Strawberry Lemonade gummies

So what’s good out there? I prefer edibles I can microdose or if I’m feeling extra achy, ones I can dose a little higher. Wana 1:1 Strawberry Lemonade gummies are right up my alley. They have them at the Zen Leaf West Loop (Adult Use)

Verilife Romeoville (Medical) has my favorite strain, Jilly Bean, a hybrid, usually-evenly matched Sativa/Indica, (are you seeing a pattern?), tipping a tiny bit toward Sativa. (https://www.verilife.com/il/menu/romeoville-medical) with a respectable 17.1%THC. Yum.

[NuEra East Peoria] (https://nueracannabis.com/peoria-med-menu/) carries a lot of bubble hash, including Pillow Factory, 65% THC. This is Colorado breeder Ethos Genetics’ strain, with limonene and beta-myrcene, (which give you a lift, and get you in your body, respectively), as well as element - a sesquiterpene powerhouse linked to apoptosis, cancer cell death.
