    4/20 Vibes

    Celebrate 4/20 with the state's first Texas-owned medical marijuana dispensary

    There’s a budding medical marijuana industry in the Lone Star State, and Texas Original — the first Texas-owned medical marijuana dispensary in the state — has witnessed the power of this medicine firsthand.

    Since opening its doors in 2018, Texas Original has seen the life-changing results that cannabis medicine has had on patients across the state. Medical marijuana has allowed patients to achieve a life without seizures, enabled patients to walk again, and has even helped many patients discontinue heavy doses of pharmaceuticals and opioid medications.

    In 2021, the Texas Compassionate Use Program expanded once again, allowing for more Texans than ever to access medical marijuana to alleviate their symptoms.

    In celebration of 4/20, here’s what you need to know about medical marijuana in Texas and how to get a prescription.

    Medical marijuana is legal in Texas
    Over 100 conditions are currently eligible to receive medical marijuana under the Compassionate Use Program in Texas. Thousands of Texans are now finding relief with medical marijuana for symptoms such as:

    • Pain
    • Insomnia
    • Anxiety
    • Aggression
    • Night terrors
    • Seizures

    In 2023, Texas will enter the 88th legislative session and Texas Original is advocating for increased accessibility for Texans. Texas Original is proud to have their roots in the Lone Star State and has made it their mission to transform Texas through the power and truth of medical cannabis.

    How to get a medical marijuana prescription
    Receiving a medical marijuana prescription in Texas is easier than you think. Celebrate 4/20 by beginning your journey to relief with these three simple steps:

    • First, fill out the Get a Prescription form on the Texas Original website. Texas Original will send you a text and email confirming your submission.
    • You will then be contacted within 24 hours by a partnering cannabis clinic. Each cannabis clinic offers telemedicine visits so that you can meet with a physician from the comfort of your home, no matter where you live in Texas. During your visit, the physician will go over what symptoms you are experiencing and discuss treatment options.
    • Once you receive your medical marijuana prescription, you’re ready to place an order for pick up or delivery. Simply call the Texas Original dispensary, start a chat on their website, or sign up on the Patient Portal. Texas Original offers several prescription pick-up locations throughout Texas and statewide delivery so Texans in all four corners of the state can access relief.

    The knowledgeable team at Texas Original is equipped to help you along the way and answer any questions you may have. Visit the website at texasoriginal.com for more information.

    The Texas medical marijuana program has expanded twice since it was established in 2015. Texas Original is the only medical marijuana company in the state that is Texas-owned and operated.

    Grand Prairie News

    Grand Prairie is transforming its downtown for future development

    Downtown Grand Prairie is about to undergo a major transformation. The city is investing in a series of improvements that will bring new amenities, enhance walkability, and modernize infrastructure while preserving the historic charm of downtown.

    These upgrades will roll out gradually, with various projects scheduled from 2025 through 2028.

    Here’s what’s coming:

    West of City Hall on Main Street
    Site preparation at the former Calvary Church will begin in November 2025 and continue through July 2027. This work will clear the way for future development along Main Street, new businesses, public spaces, or potential mixed-use development.

    City Hall Green Space (South of City Hall)
    A new performance stage will be constructed starting in November 2025, creating a space for outdoor concerts and community events. The city will also reinstall the historic Liberty Bell with a new plaque and add shade structures to make the space more comfortable and inviting for year-round use.

    Main Street (from NW 6th Street to NE 5th Street)
    One of the most impactful changes will come to Main Street, where construction will begin in winter 2026 and continue through spring 2028. The project includes utility relocation, full reconstruction of the roadway, and significant pedestrian improvements. The street will be reduced to two lanes, one eastbound and one westbound, and sidewalks will be widened to create a safer, more walkable environment.

    Jefferson Street (State Highway 161 to Cimmaron Trail)
    Starting in spring 2026, a portion of Jefferson Street will be reconstructed, improving traffic flow and long-term durability. Construction is expected to be completed by summer 2027.

    Jefferson and Main Street Roundabout
    To reroute heavy truck traffic away from the downtown core, a new roundabout will be built east of downtown where Jefferson and Main Street meet. A centerpiece of this roundabout will be a large public art installation. Construction begins in spring 2026 with a scheduled completion in summer 2027.

    These updates reflect Grand Prairie’s commitment to revitalizing its downtown area with community-oriented planning.
