“As a premiere distributor of Dixie Elixirs in Nevada, Las Vegas ReLeaf is proud to offer patients an increased variety of high quality products that appeal to both novice and veteran consumers alike, and particularly to non-smokers by offering sodas, mints, tinctures, topical lotions, chocolates, and more,” Silverstein explains.
Joel has been featured in a variety of media outlets including the New York Times, helping to normalize cannabis culture and educate the public on the health benefits of cannabis.
When Las Vegas ReLeaf opened its doors one year ago on October 5, 2015, there were only a handful of operating medical marijuana dispensaries in the state of Nevada, and none operating within the City of Las Vegas.
