Hilo Market Overview
Hilo serves as the primary medical marijuana access point for East Hawaii (Big Island). The city hosts dispensaries serving patients from Hilo and surrounding Big Island communities.
Big Island dispensaries face the same challenges as Oahu: inter-island transport restrictions mean all cannabis sold on the Big Island must be grown on the Big Island. This creates independent supply chains for each island.
Prices in Hilo are premium like all Hawaii markets: $15-20/gram for flower, $50-70 for eighths. Big Island cultivators include Big Island Grown, Lau Ola, and Hawaiian Ethos.
Only Hawaii residents with valid 329 cards can purchase. Out-of-state medical cards are not recognized.
