July 2026 marks a transformative moment for our community. We are proud to announce the grand opening of Marvin’s Garden, our new recreational cannabis dispensary located at 726 Central Ave NE in Northeast Minneapolis. This project is the culmination of years of dedication to high-quality hemp and cannabis, and it represents a new physical home for our brand. However, as we expand our retail footprint, our commitment to the convenience and accessibility that our customers have come to expect remains our highest priority.

Welcome to Marvin’s Garden
Marvin’s Garden is designed to be more than just a retail storefront. It is a space built for education, exploration, and access to premium products. While we are excited to welcome you into our new home, we recognize that the traditional 'dispensary experience'—which often involves lines, wait times, and physical travel—is not always the right fit for your busy lifestyle.
Convenience Without Compromise
For those who prefer a streamlined experience, Simply Crafted continues to prioritize local delivery and on-demand ordering. You do not need to visit a physical store to access our full catalog.
Key options for skipping the dispensary line:
Local Delivery: Our in-house delivery team continues to provide fast, reliable service directly to your door.
DoorDash: We remain fully integrated with DoorDash, allowing you to browse and order your favorites through an interface you already know and trust.

Understanding Purchase Limits & Regulatory Compliance
As Minnesota’s cannabis market matures under the 2026 Omnibus Bill, we are operating with the highest standard of regulatory transparency. Whether you shop in-store or online, you will encounter daily purchase limits established by the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM).
These limits are in place to ensure responsible consumption and market stability. Our staff and digital ordering platforms are pre-programmed to guide you through these requirements, ensuring that your selections remain compliant without adding any friction to your shopping experience.
A Seamless Checkout Experience with Blaze Pay
One of the biggest pain points in the legacy cannabis industry has been the reliance on cash. We are pleased to confirm that Marvin’s Garden and all Simply Crafted ordering channels utilize Blaze Pay. This integration allows for secure, digital payments, removing the need for ATM runs or carrying large amounts of cash, relying on the well known payment aggregate platform, Plaid.
Blaze Pay is designed to be as simple as any other online retail transaction, offering privacy, security, and speed, whether you are picking up an order at our new NE Minneapolis site or scheduling a contactless delivery to your home.
The Simply Crafted Promise
Marvin’s Garden is a major milestone for us, but it is just one part of the wider Simply Crafted ecosystem. We are the same team, dedicated to the same quality, and committed to your satisfaction. We look forward to seeing you this July, whether in person at 726 Central Ave NE, or through our continued, seamless delivery and digital ordering options.
