Good Guys

At the end of 2024, Santa granted the city of Bothell an early present with the grand opening of Premier Recreational Cannabis in Bothell because the community deserved great weed done the PRC way, which means a solid selection and great service. You may remember the owners from the medical days when they started in the market as 221 RX in Conway — now PRC Conway — as the first medical and then the first recreational licenses in Skagit County. And as they continue to expand their footprint with new stores, you may see the PRC logo regaled with five-star reviews across the board.

Consistency is King

Nestled in a strip mall on the north side of Bothell, there’s a feel of fun and friendliness that this staff is known for, with goodies and tasty treats packed into one exceptional showroom. They are profoundly knowledgeable, so come ready to ask all the questions. PRC is a legacy brand with one of the most tenured staffs in this great state, with employees totaling at least a couple of dozen years of experience in just this one location. It’s a boutique vibe with all kinds of cool stuff to check out, like the vintage marijuana bags and framed apothecary art gracing the walls.

High Note

If you’re looking for a great cause to be a part of, come holiday season, this is the station for donating apparel through their Clothes for Kids Coat Drive, which helps keep little ones warm. To add to the excitement, they love raising the fun meter for children with a December toy drive, too. You can also be a part of the action at their PRC Edmonds location, another hub for donations. And hey, if you ever find yourself at Evergreen Speedway during the racing season, look for the PRCBD-sponsored race car!
