Peekskill Cannabis Guide: Dispensaries, Laws & What to Know

Where to buy cannabis in Peekskill

Peekskill sits in northern Westchester County, and as of 2026 the city has a small number of NYS Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) licensed adult-use dispensaries. Piffords Inc. is the licensed recreational dispensary at 500 Highland Avenue, Peekskill, NY 10566 (license OCM-CAURD-25-000246). Only businesses on the OCM license lookup can legally sell cannabis in New York — everyone else is an unlicensed gray-market seller and their product is not lab-tested.

What you can buy at a licensed dispensary

NYS-licensed shops carry lab-tested products in five main categories:

• Flower — pre-packaged eighths, quarters, ounces.
• Pre-rolls — single joints, packs, infused rolls.
• Vapes — 510-thread cartridges and all-in-one disposables.
• Edibles — gummies, chocolates, beverages (10 mg THC per serving cap in NY).
• Concentrates — live rosin, hash, distillate, RSO.

Every legal product carries a QR code linking to a Certificate of Analysis (COA) from a state-approved lab. If a seller can't show one, they aren't licensed.

First visit: what to expect

1. Bring a valid 21+ ID. You'll be checked at the door.
2. Browse the menu — most shops (including Piffords) let you browse online first: see the live menu.
3. Ask the budtender for guidance on effect (uplifting, calm, sleep) rather than strain names.
4. Payment: cash only at most NYS dispensaries, including Piffords. There's usually an ATM on-site.
5. Add-on 13% NYS cannabis excise tax (9% state + 4% local).
