I just got my doctor's recommendation and I was pleased to find a dispensary near by. This place is right off the freeway in a safe location. The vibe is mellow and the place is clean. Their selection was a little overwhelming, but I got some good information on a strain that would help my anxiety and depression. I wish the bud prices were a little lower, the bud I got was potent and long lasting and I got to see and smell it first. I also picked up some cookies and caramel. The place smells so good, I couldn't resist.

Going Green was an awesome experience. The staff is very helpful and profressional. So many strains to pick from. You always leave happy and with a great price. I love how tax is included, so you actually pay what you see. The edible selection was great and they have many concentrates.

The building was also very clean. Nice waiting room. They let you touch the medical cannabis, smell it, and they weigh it out in front of you. This is my number one choice .

This place is a joke. The people 'helping' you are a joke. Way overpriced for semi-decent hay-tasting meds. Not happy. I couldn't believe some of the comments that the staff were making. Made me uncomfortable and Im just gonna try other places around the way or the city. They said they were gonna give me something for signing up and they didn't even give it to me. lame.

GOING GREEN is the best club in marin by far, the people are super cool and don't try to bullshit you like the place next door. Also going green has a great selection of meds and staff that will make you feel at home. I recommend this club by far....I'll be back for sure.

Thanks going green, I'll put the word out.

I have frequently shopped at Going Green since they first opened. The staff is usually very nice and helpful. Most of their meds are the poorest I have tried from any club, yet they charge very high prices. When they do get a nicely grown strain, they jack up the price even higher, or only sell grams for a high price. It doesn't seem honest when they write 1.8g on the bottle, yet their scale reads 1.7g, but when I weigh it on my accurate scale at home, it only reads 1.62g.

Their clones are the most expensive I have come across. Beware, the last batch of clones they displayed carried the same white fungus that wiped out my previous plants.

In all, I feel dissappointed/ ripped off almost every time I leave Going Green. When I am in the neighborhood I am going take my business to MHS, across the parking lot, where their product has always weighed out or more, and the MHS people have always been even more friendly than Going Green.

First and foremost, the location and ease of access to the club is outstanding. Just off the 101 South, Going Green is located right in the middle of a business plaza. Ironically, the place is as safe as its surrounding environment, and the inside of the club is very professional. More of a clinic or doctors office than a traditional cannabis dispensary.

The staff are very personable and eager to answer questions as well as suggest house favorites. The only source of criticism I have is that the strains are not up to par with some of their San Francisco brethren. In terms of price, I could purchase one of Going Green's top shelf strains for $5 cheaper (and additionally receive price breaks for higher quantities) at a club like Divinity Tree (San Francisco). However, the product is not entirely underwhelming, just not the best meds in the North Bay, but def not the worst.

I'm very interested to see how the place develops, and was very impressed with the service, quality and professionalism of the staff and establishment. The product could use some help, but still a legit spot to scope out if you're in the Marin area.

Why is it that I never get any medicinal relief from the meds at this place? They have horrible meds here and for the price $25/g of top grade with tax included...I did the math thats still $23/g for some alright meds. Thumbs down. Try that Holisic Solutions place next door. One star for being right off the freeway!

Very good selection of strains, I wish I could see more variety on prices though. Either way, the prices are in the same ballpark as all other clubs in the area. I'm sick of everyone bitching about 60$ 8ths and acting like that's not the norm for top strains at any club. Granted some of Going Green's strains shouldn't be priced that high, some were fairly priced at 60$. Honestly, you haven't been to many clubs if you think that's out of the ordinary. You're just dumb if you think you're gonna get street prices at a club that has to deal with huge overhead to make it legal for you to purchase medicane! Don't hate!

I went here because Apela is no longer and this will definitely be my new spot. This club is great. Very friendly staff i felt like it was a doctor's office. . They have a huge selection of edibles and I got one for free for signing up. The meds were awesome and they had a large selection for me to choose from. The staff really take the time to walk you through any questions you may have. Ill be going back for sure.

I didn't find Going Green intimidating or scary. Maybe it depends on the day of the week you go and who's working that day. I went on a Thursday around noon.

I loved the selection and a nice lady pulled out any of the glass jars that I wanted to see. She was full of info and very helpful. I didn't get any kind of weird vibe or sense that they were limiting what or how much I could get.

The only reason I'm not giving them five stars is that they are a bit pricey. But they take credit cards so I can get my meds and get my miles at the same time!

This was a great place the guys were real friendly and they hooked it up!

I went to Going Green purely out of curiousity and walking in was very intimidating and almost scary. I wasn't sure if I should knock or ring the doorbell, when suddenly a man let me in and locked the door behind me. It felt bad even though I have a legitimate illness, which requires the legal use of medical marijuana.

I was required to sign a few forms but when I asked for copies of the documents, the receptionist denied my request. He was very rude about it and even questioned my reasons for wanting the copies. When it came to the actual meds I was not impressed. Their prices were "including tax" but still expensive even before tax. Which is very expensive in my opinion.

They even went so far as to bash the other clubs and lie about their product to my face. I have been to both clubs and have seen for myself that what they were saying was untrue. Even though Going Green is threatened by the other collective they shouldn't be practicing poor business tactics by bashing them. The cause of medical marijuana clubs is universal and should be there for those people who really do need the product.

Going Green happened to make me feel like they cared more about their sales and less about the needs of me as a patient. Going Green weighed out exact opposed to giving me more for my money. After my experience, I will never return to Going Green, and I don't encourage anyone else to try them out either. I only gave it one star simply because it was the lowest amount to place this review.

I have been to this club a few times. The staff has changed a bit being new, but the new budtender was really helpful, knew his stuff and hooked me up with killer meds; it's so good that I went back for more.

The setup is improving greatly over the last couple months, they now have edibles, concentrates, and more selection of meds, along with labels on what they are. They are really trying to have a great club! I give them 5 stars for that. They are very friendly and very nicely greated me at the door, and it was a very pleasant purchase. Give it a try, you just may like it there!

Posted August 12, 2009

They have the most expensive prices I've ever seen. For some alright meds, thats outrageous!

It's a rough economy, and that is straight too expensive. I'm so over this place. Check out the others around the area before settling on this place.

Posted August 8, 2009

The place is nice. Small boutique, like an office with a nice staff. Good meds at good prices. I got a free joint for registering. I'll be going back.

Posted August 2, 2009

Good Medicine. knowlegeable staff. Many good indoors and hybrids. They also have a decent selection of concentrates and edibles. Friendly people. I'll go back for sure!

Well what can I say about Going Green I was in there a few weeks ago the 2 cool dudes were gone so this chick let me in, so I go to get my meds, I ask her for an oz and she starts saying I'm not selling oz's and you are selling it outside of the club I told her she was crazy and the reason I wanted more than an 1/8 was because I didn't want to come in everyday and I dont think its any of her business how much meds I use. I won't be going back, bad meds old outdoor bud their trying to sell for indoor prices it's a shame I really like the guys that work there they were very helpful and nice.

I live in Novato but I always like to try different clubs. Going Green is staffed with friendly people. There is a normal friendly guy, and a bouncer (who is also very nice). I walked in and signed up which is quick, and then stepped to the back to the counter. They say they don't do any kind of concentrates because it is "sketchy" due to the chemical process in which some of them are made. They had both indoor and outdoor. I like my indoor so he pulled out his 5 best jars: Blue Light, Grand Daddy, Purpel Urkel, Cat Piss, and Trainwreck. I thoroughly inspected them and all I can say is this medicine was absolutely horrible. The only reason I bought a half-1/8 of Cat Piss is because the budtender told me it was his personal medicine he smokes. He said it was very strong regardless of the crappy looks. I smoked it and it was like all right outdoor. Absolutely the worst cannabis club I have ever seen in regards to their buds. The free triple dose brownie I got for joining was strong though, hence the 1 star.

Efficient, knowledgeable and pleasant people. Quality product. Much appreciated.

Posted June 18, 2009

This is in the same shopping centre as Marin Holistic Solutions. Suddenly we've real competition in Marin and these folks are also real friendly, helpful, knowledgeable. I've tried their lemon kush and it's awesome. An outdoor sativa w/a great head high and some pleasant body stone. Edibles are good and you get one free for joining. Mine said 4 doses but I usually double-up and it was dead on; just don't eat the whole thing, lol!

Posted June 16, 2009

The one star is for the staff. The two guys working there are really cool. 0 stars for the meds! All 8 strains looked to be grown somewhere in the mid-west back in the 90's by a rookie. I reluctantly purchased a $60 1/8 (out of guilt and the fact I needed meds), after 10 hits hasn't relieved any of my pain. (Catpiss & Blue Light) Long story short, I won't be going back until I hear they have real quality meds in stock. Stick to the higher end clubs in the city. Sorry guys! Your in Norcal. Find better growers!

Posted June 12, 2009

Nice and low key. Great fresh selection and friendly service. I recieved a "free" j on my first visit there! I'll definitely go back. Great selection of edibles as well.

Posted June 9, 2009

This place must of just opened up. Nice location; a quick on/off freeway 101, very quiet, safe neighborhood. Near southeast corner of back building with small sign in door, it's easy to miss. I'm guessing you're supposed to ring the door bell for service. Shortest walk from my car to any club's sales counter. Quick processing time. Friendly, helpful service. A few choice strains(Trainwreck, Purple Urkel, Lemon Kush, Cat Piss,Big Bud, etc) available at competitive prices. Gram, 1/16, 1/8, etc. Edibles were potent. I'll be back for sure.

Posted June 4, 2009

This place is run by two very nice guys. They've only been open for two weeks so they're still getting it together. Maybe 8 kinds of meds, no hash or concentrates yet. Real good vibes, a pleasant place to do business.
