Hello! I’m Dana Larsen, founder of the Medicinal Mushroom Dispensary.

I started this shop in 2019 because I believe in the benefits of psychedelics and I want to challenge Canada’s failed drug prohibition laws.

I have been working as an activist for cannabis and drug policy reform for all of my adult life.

Among other projects, I was the editor of Cannabis Culture Magazine for 10 years, I helped create the BC Marijuana Party in 2001, I founded The Medicinal Cannabis Dispensary in 2008, I ran for the leadership of the BC NDP in 2011, I ran the Sensible BC referendum campaign in 2013, I was a long-time organizer and spokesperson for Vancouver’s incredible 420 Protestival, and I gave away over 10 million free cannabis seeds with the Overgrow Canada campaign from 2016-2019.

Following our victory in ending cannabis prohibition in Canada, I am now using the same tactics with the Medicinal Mushroom Dispensary – working to directly challenge the law by bringing the healing power of psilocybin and other psychedelics to all Canadians who need them!

We have many varieties of psychedelic mushrooms, but we also provide access to LSD and DMT, plus beneficial medicine plants including kratom, peyote, ayahuasca and coca leaf.

There is no other store in the world offering all the products that we do. We are completerly unique! But I hope we can inspire others to follow our example and provide safe psychedelics in their communities.

Our shops also carry a great selection of books, posters, tapestries and trippy framed artwork.

Our East Hastings location is part of the Coca Leaf Cafe, a special place where we serve invigorating hot and cold beverages made with true Peruvian coca leaf. We also have great sandwiches!

Our dispensary is a proud sponsor of Get Your Drugs Tested, a free community drug-checking service that I created in 2019. It has quickly grown into the world’s busiest free street drug analysis service – completely funded by our cannabis and mushroom dispensary sales! Check out our amazing database with over 50,000 test results searchable online.

We are an activist organization dedicated to promoting the benefits of psychedelics and ending the drug war. I have dedicated my life to replacing drug war and prohibition with drug peace and a legal, safe supply.

When you shop with us you are funding positive change which benefits the whole community.

Thanks for visiting our website. I hope to see you in one of our shops soon!
