RISE Medical & Recreational Dispensary Joliet on Rock Creek

Rise is a multi-state dispensary chain; the directory lists 98 of its stores across California, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Virginia, Nevada, Florida, New Jersey and Minnesota. Florida accounts for a large share, with more than 20 medical dispensaries in cities from Tallahassee and Jacksonville down to Kendall and Bonita Springs, and the chain also has a store in St. Paul, Minnesota.

What a store sells and who can shop there depends on the state. Florida locations serve registered medical patients only, stores in adult-use markets check that customers are 21 or older, and some sites serve both groups under one roof. Medical patients at shared stores have said the medical and adult-use menus are stocked separately, so it is worth checking the right menu before a visit. Menus typically include flower, vapes, concentrates, edibles, tinctures and topicals. Rise takes online orders for in-store pickup, offers delivery in some markets, and runs a points program alongside regular discounts.
