What is a Budtender?
A “budtender” is a professional inside the cannabis dispensary who interacts with customers, answers questions, offers advice about products, and helps with purchases. The name budtender first became a thing soon after the legal cannabis market began to emerge in those first states, and the fitting title has remained attached all these years later.
Budtenders go through extensive training, but they are often highly in tune with cannabis and cannabis products. Therefore, they are good at making product recommendations and answering questions like:
- What is limonene?
- What are the best flower strains and pre-rolls in Washington State?
- What is BHO anyway?
- How is the Triangle Mints strain?
- What’s the best drink from Ray’s Lemonade?
Even if you have questions not necessarily product-related, such as where you can find the best 420-friendly camping sites or things to do in Bremerton, a good budtender can help you out.
What is International Budtender Day?
International Budtender Day is a celebration of budtenders from all over that was originally started by Leafly a few years ago. October 20th is a day set aside to celebrate all the amazing individuals who spend their days guiding others on their cannabis journeys. Each year, dispensaries and others in the cannabis business work to highlight budtenders and make sure they know how much they are appreciated. While celebrations and events can vary from place to place, budtenders may be granted everything from chances at scholarships to swag from top cannabis brands.
