Why Littleton Patients Make the Short Drive to Ayer

Littleton has recreational cannabis options close to home. If you have a medical card, though, buying at a medical dispensary gives you advantages a recreational store can’t offer.

No sales or excise tax

Medical purchases in Massachusetts aren’t charged the sales and excise taxes added at recreational stores. Over a few months of regular purchases, that difference adds up.

Higher purchase limits

Registered patients can buy more at one time than recreational customers, so you can stock up and make fewer trips.

Our $100 Patient Refund Card

Central Ave offers a $100 Patient Refund Card to help offset the cost of getting certified. See how the refund card works.

Guidance from people who focus on medical use

Our team works with patients every day. Whether you’re new to medical cannabis or adjusting a routine you’ve used for years, we’ll help you think through dosing, product types, and what has worked for other patients with similar needs.

Cannabis grown right here in Ayer

Much of our flower comes from Central Harvest, our own small-batch indoor grow. We know how it’s grown and can tell you exactly what you’re getting.
