Which cannabis store serves Southbury, CT?

Hi! People Derby, at 90 Pershing Dr, Derby, CT 06418, is the cannabis store for this town. DCP's list showed no cannabis store in Southbury on November 11, 2026. Southbury is not one of the 14 towns on Derby's delivery list, so order ahead on our live menu and pick up at our counter. Our store page has the full details.

The drive down to Pershing Drive

Our mapped route from the center of town runs over Routes 67, 115 and 313, and the drive time assumes an empty road, so leave extra time on a busy day. Pershing Drive is exit 13A on Route 8, signed for Pershing Drive and Ansonia. That ramp is a northbound exit and a southbound entrance, and it was exit 16 before the mileage based renumbering. Our Route 8 guide covers the ramps.

The town history page mentions religious dissidents from the coastal town of Stratford, and says Southbury was incorporated in 1787. It also says the town was ideally positioned on the highways to provide hospitality to the travelers between those business destinations.

Kettletown State Park, Lake Zoar and the town itself

DEEP's Kettletown State Park page gives the park's address as 1400 Georges Hill Road, and describes it as located on the eastern shore of Lake Zoar, the fifth largest freshwater body in the state. DEEP says the campground and surrounding areas, including the Pomeraug, Crest and Brook Trails are closed, and will remain closed for the 2026 season. It also says the Housatonic River was dammed in 1919 to produce hydroelectric power, creating Lake Zoar.

The town's parks and recreation page says eleven town parks are available for active and passive recreational use. The Census Bureau estimated 20,342 residents in 2024 on 39.0 square miles of land, and the whole town shares ZIP code 06488.

At the counter: pickup, parking and payment

Our online ordering takes orders at any hour, so you can place the order at home and collect it at the counter with your ID. Prices and stock move through the day, so check them on the menu rather than on this page. Parking is free and on site, and a January 2025 Valley Independent Sentinel report counted 90 parking spaces in the lot.

Payment at our counter is cash or debit card, and credit cards cannot be used. The store has an on-site ATM. Inside, the Bud Bar sits toward the back of the showroom and needs no appointment, and the Hartford Business Journal reported on March 27, 2025 that ours was the state's first bud bar where customers can examine and smell products.

Aisles to browse before you set out

The shop is split into aisles, and each aisle page lists live items from the menu of the store you have selected. Browse flower, pre-rolls and infused pre-rolls first, then move on to vapes, edibles, drinks and concentrates. Nearby Oxford, Newtown and Seymour have their own trip pages.

Before you leave: common questions

Does Hi! People deliver to Southbury?

No, this town is not one of the 14 towns on Derby's delivery list, so your order is a pickup order at our counter. Our delivery page names the towns we do schedule delivery to. Order ahead on the live menu, then bring valid government-issued photo ID when you come to collect it.

How far is the store from the center of town?

The store is about 16.8 miles by road from the center of town. The drive takes about 34 minutes without traffic, and our mapped route uses Routes 67, 115 and 313. The drive time is counted from the center of town. Allow more time on a busy day, and set your map to the store address before you leave.

Which Route 8 exit is the store on?

Exit 13A is the current number for our ramp, signed for Pershing Drive and Ansonia. It was exit 16 before the mileage based renumbering. The ramp is a northbound exit and a southbound entrance, so a driver heading south needs another way in. Go by the street address on your map.

How do I pay at the store?

Bring cash or a debit card, because credit cards cannot be used. If you arrive without cash, the store has an on-site ATM. Bring valid government-issued photo ID too, because we sell only to adults 21 and older, whether you shop in the store or pick up an order.
