Hi Casual Cannabis

By Tyler Hurst

7827 SE Powell Blvd., 503-889-0504. 11 am-7 pm daily.

This shop on Powell is the first Oregon cannabis shop with union employees. Its budtenders—the starting wage is $15 an hour—tend to be more attentive than others, probably because they're focused on work instead of when they have to leave for their second or third job. Packaged flower and pre-rolls dominate the selections. Or use your daily allowance on a 7-gram cola housed in a glass tube, which makes for a great smokeable table decoration. Don't overlook the small bags of decarbed flower, which is perfectly suited for DIY infusions. Don't be surprised to not find parking because of major road repairs.
