- Bring a government-issued photo ID showing you're 21+. No medical card needed — Vermont cannabis is adult-use.
- You can walk in and browse, or order ahead on the live menu and pick up under your name.
- The price on the menu is the final price — all Vermont cannabis tax is already included, so nothing is added at checkout.
- It's sealed for the trip home: no public consumption in Vermont, and it can't legally leave the state.
If you've never been into a cannabis shop before, the whole thing can feel a little opaque from the outside. It isn't. A first visit to a licensed Vermont dispensary is closer to a small bottle shop than anything intimidating — someone checks your ID, you browse, you ask questions, you pay. Here's the whole flow so you know exactly what to expect.
Before you go: bring ID, and know it's 21+
Vermont adult-use cannabis is for adults 21 and older. You'll show a valid government-issued photo ID at the door, every visit — a driver's license, passport, or state ID all work. You do not need a medical card to shop an adult-use store like Float On.
Walk in or order ahead — both work
You've got two easy options:
- Walk in and browse. A budtender will walk you through the shelf, answer questions, and help you pick — no rush, no upsell.
- Order ahead. Build your order on the live menu, and we'll bag it under your name. Show your ID at the counter, grab it, and you're back out on Church Street in a couple of minutes.
What the shelf looks like
A Vermont shop is organized by product type. At Float On that's flower (the dried bud, sold by the eighth, quarter, and so on), pre-rolls, vapes, edibles, concentrates, and a growing set of cannabis beverages — with a heavy lean toward Vermont's small craft growers. If you're not sure what any of it is, just ask; that's what the budtenders are there for.
What you'll pay — and the tax
The price you see on the menu is the final, all-in price — Vermont's cannabis taxes are already included, so the number on the listing is exactly what you pay at the counter. No surprise math at checkout.
After you buy: keep it sealed, and where you can't use it
Your purchase leaves in a sealed bag. A few Vermont rules worth knowing: public consumption isn't permitted — not on Church Street, the waterfront, in a car, or anywhere public — so cannabis is for private use only. It also can't legally cross state lines, even into a neighboring state where it's also legal. And as always, keep it away from kids and pets.
Why shop a licensed Vermont store
Everything on a licensed shelf moves through Vermont's regulated, lab-tested supply chain — so what's on the label is what's in the package. Shopping licensed also means you're supporting the state's craft growers rather than the untested gray market.
