The Berkeley Patients Group Is One Of The Oldest Medical Marijuana Groups In The Nation
BPG is a medical cannabis collective organized to serve patients in the Greater Berkeley area. We provide safe and affordable access to a wide variety of medication, including dried herbs, edibles, extracts, and concentrates.
BPG is one of California’s largest and most respected medical cannabis collectives. We have provided safe access, fair prices, and a 2,500 sq. ft. community center to thousands of Northern California patients since 2000. Our management team has more than 50 years of collective experience in medical cannabis provision, grass roots activism, public education, and cannabis law reform efforts.
BPG is committed both to providing safe access — and to protecting it. We strive to operate a dispensary that is a model of compassion and legal integrity. BPG operates in strict compliance with the letter and the spirit of California’s medical cannabis laws.
In addition to providing safe and affordable access to medical cannabis, BPG also provides members with other free services and activities.

Join in person by bringing the original copy of your doctor’s letter of recommendation and your state-issued photo ID to BPG during regular business hours.

Your membership will be pending until we verify your letter of recommendation. You may not be able to receive services on the same day you join.
