The pop up scenes in Washington, D.C.

Pop-ups can take place anywhere from a family home, an old store, or an industrial park. Who knows. We visited pop-ups in the back of a bakery, someone’s basement, and what appeared to be a loading dock. The simple set-up usually includes some space where “vendors” can display their goods on a card table of some sorts. The “vendors” pay a small fee for the table. The most generous word we could use to describe the quality of marijuana we found at the pop-up is transient. The vibe tends to come off more flea market than fine dining. You’ll meet some great characters and fellow enthusiasts but as far as the bud goes, transient at best.
