The Herbal Alternative is an independently owned and operated dispensary, located on Lebanon Road, close to Highway 491 in Cortez Colorado. Founder Garrett Smith began with a personal interest after retiring from the military. Garrett served our country in the United State Coast Guard for five years and retired following a debilitating seizure disorder. Through his own personal experiences, he discovered the medical benefits of pharmaceutical cannabis and now shares those benefits with his clients. The Herbal Alternative grows their flower in 100% organic soil, year round. Garrett's cultivation techniques yield only the highest quality, producing the cleanest, most potent and aromatic buds available in Colorado.
