The Captain David Judson House, built in 1723, is on Academy Hill.

The society was established in 1925, was awarded a Capacity Building grant from CT Humanities in 2024, and preserves the diverse and varied stories of the community.
Open an aisle, then place the order
Start with flower, pre-rolls, infused pre-rolls, vapes, edibles, drinks or concentrates. Before the drive up Route 8, open an aisle page: it shows live items from the menu of the store you have selected. Current offers are on the deals page, not here.
Weed delivery Stratford CT shoppers can schedule
Delivery runs on scheduled orders, not on demand. The live menu takes scheduled delivery orders, our delivery drivers are licensed employees, and the delivery page has the full town list. Connecticut law sends a delivery to one person only: the adult who placed the order, who must be 21 or older with matching ID.
Cash, debit and ID
Cash and debit cards are accepted at the store, and credit cards cannot be used. The store has an on-site ATM. Shoppers 21 and older can buy with a valid government-issued photo ID, and delivery orders are paid at the door in cash or by debit card.
Questions from shoppers along the shore
Does Hi! People deliver to my address?
Yes, the town is on the delivery list for our store, and checkout confirms each address. Delivery is scheduled rather than on demand, so you pick a slot at checkout. You pay at the door in cash or by debit card, and only the adult who placed the order, 21 or older with matching ID, can accept it.
How do I drive to the store?
Take Route 8 north. From the center of town the trip is about 10.4 miles by road and about 18 minutes without traffic. Get off at the exit signed for Pershing Drive and Ansonia, a few hundred yards from our door. Heading home, there is a southbound entrance at the same spot.
Is there a bus I can ride toward the store?
One Greater Bridgeport Transit bus is signed 'To Shelton/Derby via Rt. 110', with stops at Main St & Oronoque Ln. Check the agency's route page for stops before you rely on a bus for this trip. Driving is the trip we describe, and parking is free and on site.
What should I bring to the counter?
Two things go with you from home: a valid government-issued photo ID that shows you are 21 or older, and cash or a debit card. The store's on-site ATM is the fallback when you arrive without cash, since credit cards cannot be used. Under DCP's guidance, any adult 21 or older who holds a valid government-issued photo ID may buy from a licensed adult-use retailer.
Can I order before I leave home?
Yes, online ordering takes orders at any hour, so you can build a cart on the live menu and collect it at our counter. If you want to ask about an item first, call us at 860-420-BUDS (2837). The same number reaches both of our stores, and opening times are on the store page.
Can I see products in person before I buy?
Yes, you can walk up to the Bud Bar toward the back of the showroom without an appointment. It is a dedicated consultation area where you sit down one on one with a budtender, and the Hartford Business Journal reported in March 2025 that ours was the first bud bar in Connecticut.
