"The plants you smoke at Riverside, I grew. From clone to cure, this is mine — and I would not put my name on it if it weren't right."

— Ploypailin Cunningham · Founder & Cultivator

Meet Ploy

Owner. Cultivator. Founder.

I grew up in Surin, in Isan — the rice country of northeast Thailand. My family did not have much, but they taught me how to grow things. Every plant in this dispensary, I checked myself before it ever reached the shop.

Riverside Dispensary is 100% mine. Not a franchise. Not a co-op. Not a foreign-owned operation hiding behind a Thai face. I source the genetics, I oversee the grow, and I trained every budtender behind the counter.

That is why we won the 2024 People's Choice Cannabis Cup — not because we're the loudest, but because Chiang Mai voted for the most consistent. And it's why our Google rating sits at 4.98★ across 2,307 reviews. Consistency is a personal thing.

"From an Isan family in Surin to a 4.98★ dispensary in Chiang Mai. I'm proud of every step of that journey."Ploypailin Cunningham

In-house cultivation

We grow our own.

Every flower in our jars came from our own grow — indoor under full-spectrum lights and outdoor in the sun of northern Thailand. Cultivated, trimmed, cured, and packaged by women in traditional Akha indigo. That's the only way we can promise what we promise.

Locals, travelers, and us.

Chiang Mai is a small city and we've made friends with most of it. Drop by during Songkran, Loy Krathong, or any normal Tuesday — there's always someone interesting at the counter.
