Alexandria, Virginia Cannabis Guide: Legal Status, Where to Buy & Neighborhoods
Old Town cobblestones, a working Metro line, and a Beyond Hello medical counter down the Richmond Highway corridor.
Quick answer · Alexandria, Virginia
Alexandria adults 21+ can carry up to two ounces. Unlike most Virginia cities, a licensed medical dispensary - Beyond/Hello, run by Jushi Holdings for HSA II - operates right in the city at 5902 Richmond Highway. There's still no adult-use retail anywhere in Virginia; that starts statewide in July 2027.
Alexandria Market Overview
Alexandria is a compact, independent city on the Potomac just south of D.C., built around a colonial-era waterfront that George Washington himself once walked to church. King Street's brick sidewalks, the King Street-Old Town Metro stop, and a free DASH trolley give the historic core a walkability rare in Northern Virginia, and that density carries south along the Richmond Highway corridor toward the city's working-class southern half.
That Richmond Highway corridor is where Alexandria keeps its licensed counter: Beyond/Hello, Jushi Holdings' brand for the HSA II medical region, operates an actual dispensary storefront at 5902 Richmond Highway, a few miles south of Old Town near the Huntington border. Nobody here drives the multi-hour route that Charlottesville and Fredericksburg patients still face - this is a same-city pickup, with delivery available only as an in-person hand-off to a verified patient.
Outside the medical system, Alexandria runs on the same hemp rules as the rest of Virginia: 2-milligram-per-package caps on THC drinks and gummies, sold at shops scattered through Del Ray and the King Street corridor. Adult-use retail sales remain illegal everywhere in the state until July 2027, so the Beyond/Hello counter on Richmond Highway is, for now, the closest thing Alexandria has to a real cannabis storefront.
Delivery in Alexandria
Beyond/Hello's Richmond Highway location can hand a registered patient their order with an ID check at pickup, and the same processor can arrange an in-person delivery hand-off - never an unattended drop - to a verified patient address within the region.
Popular Products in Alexandria
- Flower
Beyond/Hello on Richmond Highway carries in-house flower for registered patients; no retail flower exists for the general public until 2027.
- Vapes
The dispensary stocks its own cartridge line for patients; Del Ray hemp shops sell capped pens under the 2mg rule.
- Pre Rolls
Available to registered patients at the Richmond Highway counter - the only in-city source for this category.
- Edibles
Higher-potency edibles require a patient card at Beyond/Hello; capped hemp gummies cover everyone else in Old Town and Del Ray.
- Concentrates
Medical-only, sold to registered patients at the Richmond Highway dispensary.
Top Brands in Alexandria
Beyond/Hello's Richmond Highway storefront is Jushi Holdings' own line for the entire HSA II region, so it's effectively the only branded option a registered Alexandria patient buys from. Along King Street and in Del Ray, check any hemp can for the printed 2mg cap before buying - shop selection varies block to block.
Pricing in Alexandria
Beyond/Hello flower generally runs $45-$65 an eighth, in line with the rest of Northern Virginia's medical pricing. A hemp can in Old Town or Del Ray runs $5-$9, a bit above the statewide average given the cost of doing business this close to D.C.
2026 Trends in Alexandria
Alexandria's in-city dispensary puts it ahead of the curve when adult-use licensing opens in 2027, since Beyond/Hello already runs a storefront, a trained staff, and a patient book on Richmond Highway.

Cannabis Prices in Alexandria
Virginia pricing applies in Alexandria. Expect local variation based on competition and area type:
There is no adult-use price data yet since retail does not open until July 2027; the HB 30 tax structure (6% state excise, up to 3.5% local) points toward some of the lowest total tax rates on the East Coast once sales start. Medical dispensary flower has generally run $40-$60 per eighth depending on region and processor, with vapes and concentrates priced comparably to other East Coast medical markets. Hemp-derived THC drinks and gummies capped at 2mg per package run $3-$8 per unit at gas stations and smoke shops - cheap per item, but the low milligram cap means you are paying more per milligram of THC than a regulated market would charge.
