    Green Card Greetings has created the first-of-its-kind greeting card gift bag for marijuana. The product combines a traditional greeting card with a food grade gift bag that allows gifting of any type of marijuana product: dry herb, pre-rolled joints, edibles, and concentrates. All greetings are matte printed to allow for easy personalization. 

    The standard greeting card sized bag comes with a green envelope and witty, marijuana-related greeting for traditional card-giving occasions such as Anniversaries, Birthdays, Cheer Up, Congratulations, Get Well, Thank You, and Seasonal Holidays.  These unique gifts are sure to surprise and delight the recipient. 

    “We wanted to create a gifting experience similar to gifting wine. The reaction people have when they receive a Green Card Greeting is priceless. It is heartwarming to know that our product creates happiness and promotes giving”

    The greeting card gift bags are a point of purchase item aimed at recreational marijuana dispensaries and retailers. Customers will now have the option to gift marijuana for all occasions and retailers benefit by capturing additional “gift” revenue. “We are creating a whole new category for recreational marijuana retailers,” said Erik.

    As the legalization of recreational use marijuana continues to be adopted throughout the US, marijuana use itself has shed the stigmas of the past and is now being accepted as a consumer good. Currently, it is legal to gift marijuana, to anyone over 21 years old, in 8 states and the capital: Alaska, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, and Washington D.C.

    About Green Card Greetings: Green Card Greetings is focused on creating memorable gifting experiences by providing creative greetings and high-quality packaging.  The products can be purchased online, at retail locations, and at your favorite dispensary. Please remember to gift responsibly and obey all local laws. For more information please visit:  www.greencardgreetings.com
