Recreational cannabis is slowly taking over in Colorado, but Chronic Factory founder Matthew Lopez is still passionate about the small batch. The Denver native brought more than a decade of experience cultivating legal marijuana to his Baker neighborhood dispensary, buying the location from his former employer, New Amsterdam Organics, in order to implement his own growing practices. The soil-grown cuts of Strawberry Blonde, Afghani and Blue Lemon Thai show the love put into the cultivation, and a consistently affordable and potent concentrates menu is a smart way to ensure patient loyalty.
