Black Bear Hemp Dispensary
The team at Black Bear Wellness (Black Bear Hemp Dispensary) consists of a group of pretty amazing people ready to help you whether you are looking to find an economical and healthy solution to whatever’s ailing you or if you are a connoisseur that knows exactly what they want.
At Black Bear, customers 18 and older (21 and older for Delta 8 products) can get the products they desire without a medical card or doctor’s recommendation because all of their products come from legal hemp.
Their products are lab-tested, high quality, and most of them were grown right here in Pennsylvania. By shopping with Black Bear you are supporting local farmers.
Black Bear is veteran-owned, local, and has spent years working for some of the biggest cannabis companies in the U.S.
