Speakeasy Dispensary Expands with New Ward Location to Enhance Patient Access

Speakeasy Dispensary Opens New Location in Ward, Arkansas

Speakeasy Dispensary proudly announces the opening of its new facility in Ward, Arkansas, on August 20, 2026. This new location, situated at 11618 N. Newberry Drive, marks a significant step toward enhancing access to medical cannabis in this historically underserved region.

Moving from its former location in Pine Bluff, Speakeasy's decision to expand to Ward was made with the intention of serving a community that has long faced challenges in accessing essential medical cannabis products. The relocation received the green light from the Arkansas Medical Marijuana Commission after gaining overwhelming support from local residents and community leaders.

"The opening of our dispensary in Ward is a culmination of hard work and community support, and we are thrilled to be here," said Casey Flippo, CEO of Speakeasy Dispensary. He emphasized the importance of providing local patients with convenient options for medicinal cannabis. "Our goal has been to help patients access high-quality cannabis products without having to travel far. We are grateful for the enthusiastic backing from the community and look forward to integrating ourselves into the local fabric."

The Ward location will feature a comprehensive selection of medical cannabis options, including flowers, vapes, concentrates, edibles, and more, sourced from trusted Arkansas cultivators and processors. Patients can expect to receive guidance from Speakeasy’s knowledgeable budtenders, who are trained to assist individuals in selecting products that best suit their specific health needs and preferences.

In addition to the product offerings, the dispensary will operate Monday through Saturday from 9 am to 8 pm and Sunday from noon to 6 pm. To further streamline patient access, upcoming low-cost patient drives are being organized, providing opportunities for community members to obtain or renew their medical cannabis cards with affordable consultations from licensed medical providers. These events are planned to commence shortly after the grand opening and will continue into September.

For anyone interested in obtaining their medical card or renewing it, it is recommended to visit SpeakeasyDispensaries.com and check the "Become a Patient" section for further details regarding these patient drives.
