Partner: Elevate HolisticsLuxury Leaf is Missouri's first Black and woman owned cannabis boutique at 1463 S Vandeventer Ave in The Grove, St. Louis, partnered with Elevate Holistics to certify new patients for the Missouri medical marijuana program. Most certifications finish in under an hour by telehealth — then patients unlock lower state tax, higher purchase limits, and medical-menu access at checkout.

Why the card still matters
Missouri opened adult-use cannabis in 2023. The medical program stayed in place, and for good reason. Medical patients pay lower taxes, qualify for higher purchase limits, and unlock certain products reserved for the medical menu.
If you shop more than occasionally, the math favors the card inside of a month. Our partnership with Elevate Holistics takes the friction out of getting one.
The four steps
A walk-through of the certification, application, and first medical-menu visit. The only thing we ask of you is an hour and a photo ID.

Lower tax · higher limits
Patient benefits
Medical patients pay a reduced state tax rate versus adult-use customers. On a regular monthly basket, the savings cover the card's cost several times over.
Savings on every basket
Patients can purchase up to six ounces of flower (or equivalent) every thirty days, versus the three-ounce single-transaction cap for adult-use.
6 oz / 30 days
Certain higher-potency products and formats are reserved for the medical program. Patients see these on the shelf first and sometimes exclusively.
Medical-only SKUs
Patient intake takes its time. Your budtender asks about what you are treating, what has worked before, and what format suits your day.
