For over a decade Santa Cruz Naturals has provided consumers with quality, locally-grown cannabis. We pride ourselves on being the go-to recreational dispensary for consumers in the Santa Cruz and Monterey Bay areas. People traveling along the Pacific Coast Highway frequently visit us too. 

As cannabis is becoming more accepted, you have more options for where to shop. Just like you have reasons for getting your favorite pizza or burger, there are great reasons to choose Santa Cruz Naturals. 

Here’s why we should be your new favorite California recreational dispensary. 

1. Locally-Sourced Cannabis

We source products from the legendary growing region of the Santa Cruz and Monterey Bay area. Did you know this stretch along Highway 1 has been known for creative cannabis strains since the 1960s? And with advancements in growing and breeding practices, things have only gotten better. By sourcing locally, our dispensaries ensure fresh, low-cost cannabis products. 

2. Multiple Dispensary Locations

Spending time at the beach, the boardwalk, or the mountains? Or just going through your day-to-day routine? Our adult-use cannabis dispensaries aren’t far, with locations in Aptos and Watsonville. 

3. Low Price / High Quality

Great cannabis doesn’t have to cost a fortune, and all cannabis is not created equal. Our relationship with local growers allows us to carry affordable cannabis at price points for every consumer without compromising quality.

4. Zero and Low Emission Delivery Options

Buying cannabis in Santa Cruz or Watsonville? Take advantage of our zero and low emissions cannabis delivery service. This option saves you valuable time and fuel. We offer delivery for both dispensaries with any order over $50. 

5. Everyday Dispensary Deals

Who doesn’t love a deal? We have new deals every month at both locations for various brands, products, deliveries, and more. These cannabis deals complement our already reasonable pricing structure, so you get your money’s worth every time. 

Cristel Leroy, a returning customer of our Aptos location, has this to say:

“Still the best dispensary I've been to. Staff friendly and informative. Product supply is vast and amazing. This dispensary is constantly having ‘deals’ and products are at or below the costs at other local dispensaries.”

6. Certified Green

Environmental sustainability is part of our core values. We hold certifications as a “Certified Green'' business, which means that we meet or surpass the highest standards for using ecologically conscious business practices. This even includes the materials we built our facilities with. Visit our dispensaries and you’ll see reclaimed ancient redwood countertops and wood flooring. 

7. Recycle Your Vape Batteries with Us

You can buy vape batteries at our dispensaries, which may seem like a contradiction to our commitment to sustainability. That’s why we offer vape battery recycling to our customers to help keep batteries out of our landfills. We are all about doing our part and helping you do yours. Want $5 off your purchase? Bring in your old vape battery. 

8. Knowledgeable, Helpful Staff

Our budtenders help you find products that fit your specific needs. Whether you’re a cannabis newbie or an O.G., our staff is here to personalize your experience. We’re happy to talk through our product offerings, what’s new, and what we recommend. 

Karla Garcia, a first-time customer at our Watsonville location, has this to say:

“From the minute I walked in, the super friendly lady … was so welcoming and checked me in lickity split. Then when Julian the budtender came and got me, he couldn’t have been more friendly, accommodating or awesome. He wrapped the products I needed and I was on my way. I will definitely be back!”

9. Community Support

We think it’s important to support the community that supports us here in the Santa Cruz area. We’re honored to partner with organizations like: 

• Center For Farmworker Families

• CASA of Santa Cruz

• Second Harvest Food Bank

• Fire relief funds

• And more
