Brooklyn’s legal cannabis market just got a major boost with the launch of RnR Dispensary, a new retail destination at 21 Gardner Avenue in Bushwick. Founded by Ricky, Ron, and Zee, the dispensary officially opened its doors last week with an electrifying grand opening event that fused culture, education, and premium cannabis offerings.
The celebration kicked off with a traditional Lion Dance, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune, as attendees explored RnR’s product lineup. The dispensary currently features Pink Gas and Darth Vader cannabis flower strains, alongside two signature pre-roll blends by INDI Cannabis, a standout local microbusiness.
A Firefighter’s Vision for Cannabis Access
Co-founder Ron, a firefighter, joins Ricky and Zee in shaping a business that prioritizes education and community access. The team’s vision extends beyond just selling cannabis—it’s about fostering a deeper understanding of its properties and benefits.
At the launch event, Franklyn and Alexis Mena, and SirRoan Smiley of INDI Cannabis led interactive demonstrations, drawing comparisons between cannabis characteristics and common herbs and fruits. The INDI team is no stranger to community engagement, having previously organized food distribution programs during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as herbalism and urban agriculture education across NYC.
Bushwick’s Industrial Aesthetic Meets Cannabis Culture
The dispensary’s sleek industrial design blends seamlessly with Bushwick’s artistic and urban vibe. Visitors were welcomed into a warm yet edgy space that complements the borough’s eclectic shopping culture.
With its community-driven approach and partnerships with grassroots businesses like INDI Cannabis, RnR Dispensary is poised to become a staple in Brooklyn’s cannabis landscape.

RnR Dispensary is now open daily from 10 AM to 10 PM, with extended hours until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays for late-night shoppers.
