Herbal Alternatives was the first female (and only native Washingtonian) owned dispensary to be awarded a license in the District of Columbia.

Jen Brunenkant, the company’s founder, with nearly three decades in the cannabis industry, has heard people downplay and demonize the use of cannabis as a legitimate, safer alternative to pharmaceuticals with severe adverse side effects. Jen has listened to fellow boomers who could not shake the negative stigma of cannabis use that had been indoctrinated into them for decades. She has experienced firsthand how everyday pain affects one’s personal and professional relationships and she has seen how the need for safe access and comprehensive cannabis guidance crosses all cultural, gender, racial, ethnic and religious communities.

Jen’s experiences guide the approach Herbal Alternatives takes to providing cannabis to DC residents and visitors to our great city. She sought out a location in a traditional office building for the extra layer of safety it provided patients and as a visual, continuing statement that dispensaries have a rightful place beside all other types of businesses. 

The company’s tag line--Effective. Natural. Pure—aptly describes what regulated cannabis is for patients who suffer from a myriad of illnesses and symptoms ranging from occasional coping to life threatening. Operating as a deli-style dispensary, Herbal Alternatives gives patients the opportunity to see and smell the flowers to aid them in their selections, which are weighed in front of them in increments of their choice by knowledgeable cannabis specialists.

As individuals, all Herbal Alternatives’ cannabis specialists have a personal history that makes them advocates of the medicinal benefits of cannabis. Their unique histories and diverse backgrounds resonate with patients who, whether first time purchasers or experienced users, appreciate the knowledge and understanding they bring to assessing each patient’s distinctive needs and situation. 
Our staff, and their approach to guiding patients along the path to wellness through cannabis, is a large part of what makes each patient’s visit to Herbal Alternatives a singular, tailored experience. This talented group of people not only learn from one another but, through daily interactions with patients, refine (and sometime redesign) solutions that promote a better dispensary experience that elevates the patients’ physical, emotional and psychological wellness.

We love what we do (no matter the obstacles we face) and thank you for the privilege of being a part of your lives.

GRAV was created out of a deep desire to design precision instruments for consuming cannabis. With artistry roots, design and functionality remain at the forefront of all creations because how you smoke is just as important as what you smoke. Every piece we sell is designed, prototyped, inspected for quality, and shipped from our headquarters in Austin, Texas.

Creating high-quality glass and accessories since 2004 + advocates for the Cannabis community, culture and causes. GRAV has since become a mainstay in the pipe industry and a champion for legitimizing and servicing the global community of smokers. Our iconic brands and prolific designs appeal to consumers of every age, sex, budget, and walk of life. We have built partnerships with artists and companies all over the world, and we work each day to make our field more professional and imaginative.

GRAV is on a mission to help build a cannabis space that is just, equitable, and responsible. The company touches more people in cannabis on a daily basis than any dispensary, cultivator or brand and is using its reach to help build a positive future for the industry. GRAV lives its mission and continues to support the Marijuana Policy Project and Students for Sensible Drug Policy while being an inclusive employer and social-justice activist.

GRAVs mantra of Find Your Higher Self reflects its mission and is aimed to inspire others to positively connect with a higher state of mind. This can mean anything from creative or playful consumption to an educational understanding of the flower and the history of cannabis.

GRAV

Everyone loves a little rock and roll. The GRAV® Rocker Steamroller functions like a classic steamroller, with a carb on the end and a direct path for the smoke that ends in big hits. However the lively shape will keep people guessing. Nudge one end and watch the Rocker live up to its name while your flower stays in place. As fun as this piece is to play with, it's even more fun to smoke.
