Shop Review: Sparket

At one point Sparket had the only shop in the state to have a medical dispensary and an adult store under the same roof.

Local Legends

Sparket has been a team effort from the start with married owners Wendy Buck and Nick Benge providing medicinal Cannabis for patients since 2013. 

Wendy spent 17 years as an emergency room nurse before aiming her compass toward the Cannabis industry. At one point, they had the only shop in the state to have a medical dispensary and an adult store under the same roof, side by side. At the time, the state attempted to shut its doors, but she battled and won before all medical dispensaries had closed down.

Top Tier

This boutique has been voted the region’s best Cannabis store for four consecutive years by the Peninsula Daily News through a public poll, so it’s no mistake that they’re also appearing on these pages. In fact, they’ve won best customer service back-to-back. Time for a three-peat! 

The decor is part of that differentiator with the centerpiece being a chandelier made with Lib Tech snowboard decks and jars from the old medical shop. Also, check out the wooden art mural carved by a local tribal friend/customer. They’ve also opened a glass shop and an expanded holistic section, if you’re looking for that summer health push.

Fun in the Sun

Sparket makes a monthly donation to the 22 Too Many nonprofit (22toomany.com), and there’s always a 22% discount in-store for veterans. If you happen to be in the area, you would be invited to one of their community barbecues, where they host local restaurant owners who offer their individual expertise for the finest dishes the Pacific Northwest has to offer.

About Mike Ricker

The first time Ricker smoked weed was at a Santana concert at the age of 12. He then followed in his footsteps as an award-winning radio personality who became notorious for offering a stage for bong toking listeners in 9 different markets over 20 years. In 2016, the Cannabis industry came calling and the rest is history.
