"Veterans often face unique health challenges, ranging from chronic pain to PTSD. Cannabis has become a viable alternative therapy for many who seek to manage symptoms without heavy reliance on pharmaceuticals. With legalization expanding across New York, veterans are finding relief not just through safe, regulated access to cannabis, but also through products made by businesses that share their background and experiences."
"Brands like Silly Nice, Veterans Choice Creations, SpaceBuds, New York Honey, and Pot & Head represent more than just labels on a shelf. These are veteran-owned or veteran-made companies that embody the entrepreneurial spirit of those who served. By purchasing from these brands, veterans can directly support their peers, ensuring that economic benefits of the industry stay within the community."
Estimates place the number of veterans living in New York State between 563,400 and 580,000 as of early to mid-2025, with some earlier reports approaching 675,000. Many veterans now have greater access to New York's legal cannabis market, and numerous dispensaries offer meaningful veteran discounts, typically around 10 percent. Cannabis serves as an alternative therapy for chronic pain, PTSD, and other conditions, reducing reliance on pharmaceuticals. Veteran-owned and veteran-made brands provide products that keep economic benefits within the community. Veterans are advised to call local dispensaries, ask for the manager, and specifically inquire about veteran discounts.
