Green Wednesday: Cannabis Joins Thanksgiving Celebrations
Green Wednesday is a day when many people in the United States buy cannabis to enjoy during Thanksgiving.
It's like a special shopping day for cannabis, similar to how people shop for Christmas or Black Friday deals.
Dispensaries sell lots of different products, like edibles and pre-rolls, and some even have events where they pair cannabis with Thanksgiving food.
This day helps make cannabis feel more normal and accepted, especially among families.
Even though cannabis is still not legal everywhere in the U.S., many states allow it for fun or medical use.
People are advised to be careful about the laws, especially when traveling between states.
Cannabis dispensaries reported high sales on Green Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving.
Customers bought various cannabis products to enjoy during the holiday weekend.
Green Wednesday has grown in popularity as cannabis becomes more mainstream.
Some dispensaries saw sales rival those on 4/20, a well-known cannabis holiday.
Advocates note that the holiday helps normalize cannabis use within families.
