I won\'t be going back. these people are all about the cash and not helping people!

Posted March 10, 2011

Great club, been there only a few times. Planning to go back. One stop shop with good prices. Safe, clean, and helpfull place. Very good meds, with different choices.

Posted March 9, 2011

This club is truly the best in town! Incredibly good medicine all across the board and delicious edibles. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable and help out a lot! Anyone giving this club a bad review has clearly never been there.

Posted March 8, 2011

Lost all respect for this place, too busy talking trash about old employees to weigh out my meds right!! Where's that guy who was always real nice. New employees are bad! Tried to get me to buy something I didn't want, like that was what he was gonna make $ on. These guys are 100% for profit, they don't even take their own patient vendors.

Posted March 8, 2011

The best in town!!! They know there buds! Very friendly, quick and easy, I highly recommend this club, great edibles, and their meds are super fire!! Their five dollar grams are very impressive..

Posted March 7, 2011

Good collective with great edibles. The people are cool and knowledgable. Great place with good meds.

Posted March 6, 2011

This club is really taking a change for the better, I'm excited to see them blossom. Quality meds at a reasonable price, and the gal that helped me was just so friendly and had answers! Keep up the good work guys! (and gals) :)

Posted March 5, 2011

I really love this collective. They have the most caring and professional staff. We have been coming here for over a year and have never had a bad experience! They always have great medicine, and the service goes way beyond anything we have ever experienced anywhere. You won't be dissappointed with this place!

Posted March 4, 2011

I have read most of the reviews and find it very difficult to believe there would be one, let alone 3 or 4 or more that find this place anything but top notch. The staff is friendly, knowlegable, and more than willing to assist you, and see your needs are taken care of. They have very good meds and a lot of differant kinds. You guys have my vote, keep it up. Looking forward to my next visit.

Posted March 3, 2011

Friendly professional service, with top notch medicine. Seems to be a hidden agenda with these negative posts...

Posted March 2, 2011

RVC is the one & only for me. They offer top notch meds for a good price, along with a friendly, like you've known them for a long time, type of feeling. I feel welcome and enjoy every visit. For those of you that didn't have a good time, get some glasses or have your eyes checked, it could be related to a more serious illness. As for me you guys rock !!!!!!!

Been to clubs all over California and I've seen some great medicine but this club is a must see! Great meds, unique genetics, chill vibe, not to mention a seriously dedicated and knowledgeable staff. Took home their house Chemdawg some of the best Chemdawg, if not the best I have ever tasted. Their Blue Dream also set me back quite well. They have a very large selection of high, mid, and low quality meds but everything in store I looked at was fresh, unlike many clubs with large selections that seem to have been sitting around for a while. Another unique thing I noticed was their edibles were entirely in house. They told me it was to provide a safer more controlled dose for their patients. One guy there gave me a large amount of info and spent a lot of time making sure I was well taken care of, even though the shop was quite busy. I felt like I was the only customer in the shop. Truly the best shop in Nor Cal!!! Thanks R.V.C.

Posted Februray 26, 2011

Great place! Been a patient for a while and the service has only improved! The bud tenders there are knowledgeable and are quick to find the meds perfect for me. The edibles are pretty strong and cheap too. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Posted Februray 24, 2011

Their 5$ grams are a joke. Moldy! If you are sick don't smoke their medicine, it'll just make you sicker! Other clubs $3 grams is much much better!

Posted Februray 15, 2011

If I could I would give them a no star rating. I dont know how they did it last year but this year they are off to a bad start. They have the lowest donations for vendors and still charge the high prices. The only thing there that is a good deal is the $5 outdoor. And the reason it is so cheap is because its full of mold and chemical pesticides. I would not recommend this to anyone. Chemical pesticides can be potentially harmful if smoked. Check for yourself next time you go in and scope your medicine or if you have the money send it in to be tested.

Posted January 22, 2011

I've always been pleased with the edibles and cheap weed here! They have a very nice, knowledgeable staff too. The location is also nice because it's easy to get to from the parking garage on Placer California. The atmosphere in this collective is very relaxing and welcoming. There are many collectives closer to my house but RVC is worth the drive.

Posted January 15, 2011

One of the worst in town! Big shop little heart! This club was the best around last year, I don’t know what happened. Saw a commercial ad for this club and the owner isn’t even smiling. There is a problem when the owner isn’t smiling when he's making all the money! Thought it was pretty sad that the budtender I've come to enjoy talking to so much wasn't in the ad due to the owner! All this place has is $5dollar crap! Found mold in my last sack, won’t be returning! Ever!

Posted December 21, 2010

First time was a great impression with great deals, good treats, and just a nice clean open place. A guy named Mike was very helpful.

Posted November 26, 2010

My husband was a vender for RVC for about one year. In the beginning we would get paid in a timely manner and by the end they would sell our product and pay other venders out of the money and ask us to wait. We also didn't like the fact that they marked up the product so high from the price that they were paying us. With the prices they charge you can find you medical cannabis cheaper on the street. We are no longer a vender nor do we recommend others to be venders for RVC. Hopefully RVC can change their ways in the future, but for now we will not recommend them for anyone’s medical cannabis needs.

Posted October 11, 2010

One of the best collectives I have been to. It's open, airy and filled with light and art. The medicine is top notch! I couldn't find anything negative in this club. Their treats are reasonably priced and the meds are top quality no matter what shelf I looked at for the price. People complain about "street type prices", but I don't see any growers asking for less for their product, only more.

Posted October 4, 2010

These guys are by far the best in the west. Always happy, helpful, and knowledgeable of their supply, and very public-orientated. Keep up the excellent work, and forget the squares.

Posted October 2, 2010

I bought some O.G kush from River Valley collective, and I know I made the right choice. With some help from a young, very knowledgable guy, I got excellent advice and learned alot of great things that I never knew. I would have to say their service is the best. There's no reason to go anywhere else, when they provide outstanding service, high quality produce, and great knowledge. Thanks alot!

Posted September 14, 2010

First of all, let me say that my experience at RVC was much like the guy who got overcharged. The people who run the place seem friendly enough most of the time, but it also seems like nobody is really in charge and the employees who are left to deal with the customers don't know what they are doing and don't represent the collective to the best of the owners' interests. Since some of you seemed to feel it necessary to comment on that post, I feel driven to point out a few inconsistencies in your opinions.

Ok, I don't pay taxes on donations. I am not going in and donating a random amount of money for a random amount of medicine. There are fixed prices, taxes and fixed amounts. It's a store, not a socialist handout where you get the same amount for a penny that you would for a dollar. So, just like if you got overcharged for your meds at Rite Aid and realized it after the fact, upon checking your receipt, the guy called to ask about it. From what I read, the guy didn't ask for extras, but was told he would be hooked up for his inconvenience by the representative of the collective. This isn't some greedy guy who was trying to work the collective for free goods, but a guy who went into the place to purchase his meds, got overcharged and went back to make it right.

My next point is that he seemed to say that while the employee he was dealing with was bumbling through the experience, the owner was standing right there and did nothing to step in and make it right. As a business owner, with employees, I'd never allow one of my clients to go through something like what was described without getting involved, thanking my employee for his part and then personally satisfying the concerns of my client. It's just good business. When you stand there and act disinterested while your employee ruins your client relationships, you deserve to lose business to someone who will better care for their patients.
For the record, I've found a collective that better represents my needs as a patient and that has employees working for them who seem to genuinely care about you, helping you and not so worried about looking or acting cool. I'm pleased for anyone who has been treated well by and is happy with RVC, but that doesn't negate the experiences of those of us who have left feeling neglected or disrespected.

Posted September 5, 2010

I've been going to RVC since this time last year, and I must say they have gotten a bigger place now (that I love). The artwork inside is beautiful and the folk inside are very knowlegable! I read that the one gentleman got overcharged, and if you don't know what you're donating for, you shouldn't be in there! You're lucky the owner gave you anything after the fact. Nothing in this world is free, and RVC has given me a free gram every Friday for 2 months since I lost my job! That's compassion! They are by far the best club in Shasta Co and in the North State! This place is for me! "Masfeca", that means more for me!! You guys Rock!! Redding's downtown club!

Posted September 4, 2010

I love this place. There are a lot of patients that think since they come down once a month to get an 8th that the club owes it to them to hook them up. Does your Rite Aid hook you up? No! People who think these guys are making a killing are fools!! RVC uses patient grown cannabis only!! They grow a very, very small amount for themselves! Maybe in the Bay area where you have 4 clubs for a million and a half people, but up here in Redding we have 18 clubs for 2,000 registered patients!! I know 4 club owners and all of them have a hard time paying their bills!! RVC is the best in town by far!! I've vended to them for a year know and they've always treated me great!

Posted September 1, 2010

Straight greedy, and ok to bad meds! You lost a member, peace.

Posted August 20, 2010

These guys were very cool when I first started coming in. Great weed, lots of knowledge, and decent prices. It seems like maybe they are getting full of themselves, and here are my issues:

When taxes were added as of August 1, RVC took this opportunity to also raise their prices on the products. It seems odd that we are basically paying street prices when these "collectives" aren't supposed to be profiting from the sale of meds. I'm sure it's structured around a corporation, which after paying it's "officers" a healthy salary doesn't make any profit, but the "officers" behind the corporation are making a killing. I don't begrudge anyone making a profit, but it would be nice if they weren't greedy about it.

Second, I recently was overcharged when I went in and made a purchase. The way it was rung up and sold to me didn't seem right and it was nagging me until I called. At first they tried to say it was from adding tax, and maybe a Debit card usage fee (which I later found out they don't even charge), but no matter how they explained it, the numbers didn't make sense. So the guy tells me on the phone that he is sorry and that "next time you come in I'll have something nice waiting for you". So I go back a couple days later and he has nothing "set aside for me", but he has a note reminding himself I was overcharged. He asks me what I want to purchase and I pick out a couple grams of good meds, which he proceeds to ring up at full price. When I reminded him that he still hadn't taken care of the overcharge, he fumbled around and asked the "owner", Alan, how he should re-ring it. At this point I tell him I'll just go ahead and pay for the couple grams, full price, and maybe they can hook me up with edibles. He says sure, no problem, and then gives me 4 cookies, which have an exact value of the $10 overcharge. So basically, after all that, I ended up getting product for what I paid, but I only got what I paid for, only got product in the amount I was overcharged and certainly wasn't "hooked up". There was nothing given to me for the inconvenience and overcharge. When I first started coming in, they'd throw in free edibles with each order just to be cool, just to say "thanks for coming in", but in this case, not only didn't they hook me up with any "thank you" or "sorry for the overcharge" extras, but I had to go back to get product I'd been overcharged for.

I still like this collective, I just think mabye they are getting big heads with the good reputation they've built and are starting to forget that it is the patients who matter and that without us they just have a building full of meds. Any customer service related business depends not only on great services/products, but on good reputation and word of mouth, and that years of hard work in building a good name can go down the toilet quicker than a flush with poor customer service. Value those who pay your bills and put food on your table, lest they decide, as every consumer has the right to do, that the collective "just down the street" has more to offer, on whatever level, and takes their good and hard-earned money elsewhere.

I am a proud member of RVC and as recently as the past 24 hours, I left smiling and feeling welcome like they always makes me feel. The service is great, the knowledge is there, and the buds are top notch! Love you guys, you know I'll be back!

Posted June 30, 2010

Holla, buds for 5 dolla! Buds too, not shake. I won't go anywhere else, ya'll need to check it out!!!

Posted June 29, 2010

I've been with RVC since they opened! This club has the best indoor bud for the cheapest price. I know, I checked it myself. I just moved up here from LA and I was excited to see that so many clubs opened up, because when I first intially came here there where none and I was curious as to what was different between the ones here and down south. Being from LA you are always trying out new clubs looking for the best deal, and once you find the best deal you stick with that club and are willing to commute quite a distance, even though you pass like 10 clubs going there.

River Valley has became that club to me. Their facilities are nice and have a friendly feel to it. The entire staff is very knowledge and know what they are talking about because they are all growers and cannabis enthusiasts themseleves. There is nothing worse then when a club doesn't know what type of bud they are working with, let alone what types of high an indica or sativa produces. I've found that in some of the clubs around here. How can you properly dispense medication without that knowledge? Thankfully this was not the case. They actually offer classes of all kinds, ranging from germinating to making concentrates. (I personally listened in on one of these classes for a little bit and the guys know what they are talking about).

As for the bud, they had a good extensive collection of all different types of cheap, high grade indoor ( I noticed alot of bud here is outdoor and not in a controlled enviorment. It doesn't taste as good or smell as good or get you as high) bud at the cheapest price in town! So I picked up an 1/8 of some of the bombest purple kush I have seen, which was really nice and got me super faded. I also picked up an 1/8 of blue dream, which is rare to find in LA because it gets bought up super fast and not too many people have the plant. I was so happy with this club I am taking time off my busy schedule to write this review.

But hands down, best bud for your money!

Posted June 27, 2010

Wow, who ever is putting up this one star bs is out of their minds! Have you even been their or maybe it does seem to be a jealous club?!? Funny how the one stars came after they won the cup! Congrats to you guys, you obviously did well! The club looks great! They're very helpful and friendly people and absolutely great products! Don't ever doubt them, they have got what you need!

Posted June 27, 2010

This collective is professional and courteous. They have consistently good medicine. As a vendor, it's almost impossible to talk to the buyer, which can be frustrating.

Posted June 26, 2010

Wow, what a bunch of haters! I love RVC!! Their joints are free and do the job! Their cheap grams are the best in town, and I should know. I was a member of all of the Redding clubs!!!! It seems to me if you're spending 150 bucks on buds of top shelf, you've got to be enjoying the buds!! As for being a little slow, they take their time with each patient and never hurry you along! I hate when budtenders rush me or push their crap on me!! RVC is where it's at!! Too expensive? lol. They cap out and tax is included!! There a few other clubs charging more than they do a gram, plus tax! RVC rocks!

Posted June 26, 2010

This club looks good from far, but is far from good.

Posted June 25, 2010

I have been here a few times, each time was, well just alright. The service was a little slow. They were somewhat nice but the quality of product wasn't the greatest. I got a joint and I opened it up and it was sugar leaf. I was very disappointed. This club is okay, the people seem to be nice but the bud is not the best. This club is good if it was the only one in town so you wouldnt have to go to joe blow on the corner to get meds, but I'd say about half the clubs in town are better than this one. Sorry guys. Step it up.

Posted June 24, 2010

Ugh! Let me just say, the service sucks here! The selection sucks and the prices are high. I was going to go for their cheap gram and it was terrible. It was so bad I threw it away. I couldn't do anything with it. I went back again (I used to go all the time until I found a better club.) The service was unprofessional and I ended up spending over $150 on top shelf strains. They looked good at first but they were harsh and I didn't get high off them at all. Not only did I have to wait almost 20 minutes to be helped but I ended up wasting a load of money. If you go to this club I feel sorry for you.

Im writing this in response because ive been a patient with these two fine gentalmen since last year when there were only three medical cannabis clubs intown!As a disabled female Vet living on a fixed income id say These two boys have been helping people in every way possible that they can! I hear ever one keeps saying there in it for the money yet they give med's away for a simple canfood donation!! Its funny how theres 10 great reviews and then 1 from," Maybe another Collective owner," and i say that because if you've ever been there you'd see that there Hash is of the finest quality, and even there cheapr grams are better than most other clubs expensive grams!! Like i said im on a fixed income so when I can afford a cheap gram worth of medical cannabisI go to our very own," Nor Cals Best" River Valley Collective!!

Posted June 23, 2010

I live about 30min from RVC and ill tell you its worth the drive everytime!!im only writing this review because It cracks me up to read these negative reviews!! "There hash is dry?" Thats the best & stickest hash ive ever had, and ive been smokin hash for 25years!! There bud is harsh?? im sure it is if your smokin i out of a metal pipe!!! lol come on people no need lie," other club owners or staff!!" you've probly never even been there! I found RVC after a friend herd i was a member of a club across town and knew i was driving 30min anyways! The people there are Very nice and its a family owned business!! The 2gentalmen that founded the place last year are totaly down to earth and ive met one of them and its hard to say there in it for the money when there bud is from us,"the patients!" I had a few extra Oz's from my last harvest and when i came down with the med's the young man," who was very polite and was very truthful," told me that he could help me out,& after 4other clubs were rude and wouldnt even talk to me about vending i was ready to help their cause in any way possible! I recently found out that they test all there everyday vendors buds for pesticides and thc! What a club!! You got to check them out!

Posted June 20, 2010

I've been with RVC, they are the only club in Nor Cal!!!! These people who write these crazy 1 star reviews have probably never even been there!! I love this place and think everyone should check them out!!

This is the place that won awards at this year's High Times Festival? What a joke! Don't waste your time. They were very rude and their product is garbage. Pull-a-part, flaky hash and sorry guys, what you're sellng is not Blue Dream. Talk to some real growers

Posted June 12, 2010

This place was alright and I'll go back. Mostly because their OG Kush is rad. The guys were nice but not very knowledgable. They really could improve their counter and have a nice price list too. Overall, not bad but not the best in town.

Posted June 11, 2010

I was not pleased with my experience here. I went here a few times each time hoping would be better than the last. The selection sucks. The staff hurried me and made me feel uncomfortable. The last time I went I got a gram and it made me choke so bad and I didn't even get high. It was terrible. I got an expensive gram and it was pretty much like the cheap shit. I will never go here again. Very unsatisfied. Ugh. It sucks too because I live close by and now I have to travel across town to get my stuff, but it's worth it.

Posted June 7, 2010

Excellent service/medicine and very knowledgable staff.

Posted June 6, 2010

We here at River Valley only carry the finest in quality! With our hash recently taking 2nd at the High Times Cannabis Cup, we don't believe the quality is lacking! Also, we placed 1st in the Sativa class with our Blue Dream and 3rd with our OG Kush!!! RVC has the largest selection in Redding! I'd say maybe we're just not for you! We here at RVC won 3 awards at The High Times Cannabis Cup, winning more Cups than any other Collective in the North State!

Posted June 2, 2010

I came here and they had out door swag and moldy hash. The guy working the counter did not know much about his meds, how they were grown, or what dominace it was. The edibles were foul looking at best. I saw some old and stale rice crispee treats.

Overall this was a horrible waste of gas. I can't believe they won an award! They must be slamming these things with the staff bull swag. I can't stand that these clubs are ripping off their customers whom have limited incomes and are in pain. They need the best medicine available, not the cheapest. If you want the quickest buck, go to your local dealer. He has better pot and better deals. Put these dirt bag lames out of business. Don't let them take any more of your money. Go to a caregiver, spend money on nutrients and clones, or have someone grow your own!

This is that place worth driving for!! Coming down to RVC is the highlight of my week!! Thanks guys!!

Posted April 28, 2010

River Valley has the best vibes of any clubs in town. Get the feeling these guys are more about the community/education/consumption/business aspect of cannabis rather than the Shady/$$$/Profit-Over-Compassion side. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Good herb, they know what it actually is, and they don't try to screw you over. What else can you ask for?

Posted April 26, 2010

They keep me coming for good meds and effective pain-relief. Thank you River Valley.

Posted March 24, 2010

I had gone to a few clubs in town and had been pretty disappointed until I visited River Valley the other day. I met a nice young man who was a co-owner and let me tell you he was like a walking Encyclopedia on everything cannabis. When you ask him a question, even though you know he has to be busy helping his regulars, he takes time to answer all your growing questions. Not everyone in Humboldt can grow the kind. He made you feel important and it is straight across the board regardless of who you talk to in there. Everyone is friendly and professional and it's aways the same people, not a big turnover of employees. It's a great atmosphere as it should be and it's nice knowing you will see the same faces each time you visit. They grow all the medicine organically and have quite a few strains to choose from. It's like now theres a reason to come into Redding! I found River Valley on NorCal!! Thanks guys and girls!!

Posted March 16, 2010

No fee to sign up, friendly people, nice shop. Large selection of med quality herb at LOW prices that I have yet to try. Seen some pretty bomb purple outdoor for $25 1/8. But I didn't pawn my snowboard to buy mediums, I want the highs!
$45 1/8 is as expensive as it gets for their top end herb. I picked up what looked good; Jack the Ripper, Romulan, Peak 19, Blue Skunk, OG Kush.
All good medicine, very stony and good taste. Nothing dry, harsh, poorly trimmed, or chemical tasting. Need to go back and check out whatever their good purple strain was, Lemon Kush, Blue Dream and that Cindy 99 looked dank too. Dude gave me free sample of some Trainwreck they might start getting, I hope they do, it was legit. About as good of prices as I've ever heard of from a club. Hope they're here to stay.

Posted February 23, 2010

River Valley has great service and even better medicine. It's a know you by name type of environment... if you need help finding you are type of medicine, or if you just have questions their staff is more than willing to help and serve you in every possible way...best in town.

Posted February 8, 2010

Gotta love the haters! How many clubs do you know that give away free bud?? This place has the best deals in town!

$5grams of BlueDream!
$25 1/8's of mendo purps!!
$30 1/8's of purpl Haze!!!

Come on bud, there's no one who can compare and I'd say it's pretty hard to make money with giant overhead like they have. Go to a little hole-in-the-wall club that pays 250 bucks for rent if you wanna talk about making money. Sorry bud, but I love RVC! I along with alot of others.

With so many choices, and RPD telling us we can only visit one club, make sure its River Valley Collective! I love their edibles and their Mr.Nice and Blue Dream are the bomb!! Well, my favorites at least! With whispers of them lowering their prices to a 40 cap on 1/8's, I'm there!! This is the chronic spot for sure!

Posted January 13, 2010

Sometimes in life, the grass is greener on the other side!! Lol, I've been visiting a club on my side of town (Eastside of I5) and found myself in downtown Redding without my meds! What was a girl to do? I looked online and found a place close, RVC, without really knowing what I was going to find since I had been going to that other club for so long. I couldn't believe it! The staff was super nice, they had a great location with easy parking, great meds, and there's too much to list!! It's true, sometimes the Grass is greener on the other side!

Hands down the Best club in town!! I drive almost an hr to come visit this club and they're the most compassionate people around! They medicine is the best in town and the prices are the best also! this will be my one club!!

This place rocks! I've been a patient in redding since there was only 1 club and I'd say that river valley collective is the best one in town! These guys are very polite and respectful! Im almost 60 and they are very nice, even opening the door for me sometimes! This place is clean and you can tell they know there medications! Im sorry for the last guy, fax never broken, more like your doctor doesnt verify after hours! These are the nicest group of advocates for the cause around! Thanbks rvc! Joe

I could not get verified because there fax machine was broken. The owner seemed arrogant and kept telling me how much better they were than the other collectives in Redding. I didn't like it when he called me "pops" reminds me of jail talk. Any ways I haven't been back since and have no need to with many so many other collectives in town with low prices and quality medical cannabis.

I must say that this could very well be the only club open next year! These two gentalmen are running Reddings Premier Cannabis Club! No Dout! This club reminds me of a little place in Oakland! Very Clean, well kept, The patients that help you out there were very knowledgeable about what they were talking about!

I felt very safe and welcome at RVC!! I recently visited 15 clubs in Redding and not one compares to this one! Dont take my word for it check it out urself!! River Valley Collective is here to stay!!

Can't say enough good. If we can only go to one dispensary, come January, make sure it is River Valley Collective. The only one in town that gives free classes, and will take the time to educate you on different strains and the laws. These people are an awesome group of people.

Posted November 25, 2009

Everyone, this club is truly what COMPASSION is all about. The customer service is truly unparalleled, they even give away free weed in desperate times.

The bud was from 5-15/gram. They had pre-rolled joints for 5 i think. Some of the strains they had in stock were strawberry cough, blue skunk, blueberry headband, green crack, and mendo purple, just to name a few.

I bought a gram of straw cough for 12.50 and they gave me two free cookies and a brownie. I will definately visit this place again! Recommended!

Very helpful, professional group in a dignified environment. I was not part of the culture, but they made me feel comfortable and explained what needed 'splainin. They get my repeat business and i have to travel a long ways... I highly recommend them to anyone that has a medical recommendation and needs a little more info and reasonable prices.

I found the RVC in early Sept, just before I got my collective garden taken by Shasta County Sheriff's Officers. They would not listen to my side of thing's so after I found RVC they have gone out of there way help me get thru until my friends Harvest. Thanks Allen and Walt and all my new friends!

I have been a Prop 215 supporter since day one and have grown and been to some of the best clubs up and down California. River Valley has the best medicine i have seen around the Tri-County area and even the Bay. You don't have to pay 60 an 1/8, just 45. Never more than that, and they have the best selection i have seen, period. You guys rock. My kind of place to be, low key in and out, and feel at home. Check it out for yourself, it is worth it....Legalize the World!

Posted October 15, 2009

By far the best collective around! The staff is beyond knowledgable! They can answer all your questions and are more than willing. Friendliest group around! Everyone is made to feel welcome and appreciated! if you haven't tried these guys yet, you are definitely missing out! I forgot to mention the best prices in town, on the best meds in town! Everyone should go and become a member, plus there are no membership fees! So go go go go go! You won't regret it!

This club has the best indoor bud for the cheapest price. I know, I checked it myself. I just moved up here from LA and I was excited to see that so many clubs opened up because when I first intially came here there where none, and I was curious as to what was different between the ones here and down south. Being from LA you are always trying out new clubs looking for the best deal and once you find the best deal you stick with that club and are willing to commute quite a distance, even though you pass like 10 clubs going there.

River Valley has became that club to me. Their facilities are nice and have a friendly feel to it. The entire staff is very knowledge and know what they are talking about because they are all growers and cannabis enthusiasts themseleves. There is nothing worse then when a club doesn't know what type of bud they are working with, let alone what types of high an indica or sitiva produces. I've found that in some of the clubs around here. How can you properly dispense medication without that knowledge? Thankfully this was not the case. They actually offer classes of all kinds, ranging from germinating to making concentrates. (I personally listened in on one of these classes for a little bit and the guys know what they are talking about).

As for the bud, they had a good extensive collection of all different types of cheap, high grade indoor ( I not iced alot of bud here is outdoor and not in a controlled enviorment. It doesn't taste as good or smell as good or get you as high) bud at ONLY $45 an 1/8, which is the cheapest price in town! So I picked up an 1/8 of some of the bombest purple kush I have seen, which was really nice and got me super faded. I also picked up an 1/8 of blue dream, which is rare to find in LA because it gets bought up super fast and not too many people have the plant. I was so happy with this club I am taking time off my busy schedule to write this review.

But hands down, BEST BUD FOR YOUR MONEY!

I recently recived my recommedation for the second time and went down the line of co-op's 1 by 1 visiting them all, or the dozen I could find anyway. Most just don't have a clue & should close there doors. To charge someone to become a member is not very compassionate. River Valley has no fees and even give out alot of free med's, yes I said free meds! Besides River valley Collective and maybe 1 other, who charges those fees, most co-ops are poorly operated. Lacking in good med's and compassion! River Valley Collective has really set the bar pretty high!! Theres too many GREAT things to say about them, I'll let you visit them and see for yourself.

Thanks for helping to heal the Nation.

Also thank you to Nor Cal, for if it were not for your page i would not have found these compassionate patients collective.

Posted September 24, 2009

I read all the reviews on this place and I must say they're right! This place is one of the best, if not the best in town! LOL too bay area-ish?? Sorry friend but the bay sets the standards for medical cannabis clubs! There's a reason why they have been there since Prop 215 came to us. There's nothing barn about this place. Very clean and proffesional! The staff was very nice and they had 7 top shelf strands and 5 2nd shelf and a few hashes for a great price! Thanks Nor Cal for helping me find the needle in a haystack! They have everything a 215 patient could need to medicate!

10 Stars!!

Posted September 21, 2009

Great place! I was very comfortable going in, I felt like I had time to look at the meds and prices without a long line behind me or someone just walking in while I was looking at the meds, like a place I visited in my home town. There is no 10 dollar fee and the prices are decent and so are the meds. You're able to scope it right there in private to see what your getting and I like that!!

Posted September 18, 2009

I saw this guy on the news and I'm so happy I went in and met him! I've never been so happy leaving a club in my life! This place rocks! Great meds, smart, kind compassionate staff!

They treated me like a part of their family! Oh ya, the prices were great too! I always knew I'd find a club worth visiting frequently for my meds and i finally found them! River Valley Collective is by far the best club in Redding!

Thanks guys!

Posted September 15, 2009

This collective really impressed me. I love the storefront right near downtown. It's real easy to find and I was welcomed by a friendly staff. They have a nice private room to view the meds, and I must say they are top notch and lowest prices around. I got a $40 1/8 that was just as good as others $60 1/8's. Plus their hash is only $20 a gram :)

Posted September 6, 2009

I have been to all the clubs in Redding so far and this is the only one I felt truly comfortable at. This place is modeled after the blue sky coffee shop in oakland, and they really take the time to get to know their members. They also have a frequent buyer's card. The selection is amazing, and their edibles actually work! They also provide information on growing, taking, cutting, etc.

Nice storefront location ( they are not ashamed to sell medical marijuana like some other places in redding) and they're located right down the street from Natural Care for Wellness.

River Valley Collective is the only place I will be going from now on!

Did I mention the Hash is actually affordable?

Posted September 3, 2009

I think its safe to say that medical marijuana collectives are here to stay. I have visited nearly everyone of them and I must say that River Valley is one of the best. With a knowledgable staff, clean and friendly atmosphere as well as great variety. I truly enjoy the experience every time I stop by. Not to mention the volunteer work that mebers have done to help clean shasta county. River Valley is an example of a true marijuana collective. Thanx guys

Posted September 1, 2009

Very profesional, like i was walking into a Medical Cannabis Dr's Office! Place was clean, meds were of the highest quality, people knew what they were talking about. Great location right downtown, safe acess & easy parking! I highly recommend! And I found them on NorCal Cannabis Clubs! Thanks Guys&Gals! Rich

Posted August 30, 2009

Great place! I was greeted kindly, excellent meds at great prices! This is now my favorite place!

Posted August 29, 2009

I walked up to the building and was kindly greeted my a member of the staff. The place is very nice, patient friendly, and know exactly what there doing with the whole collective feel. So i got signed up got my picture taken they explained exactly what there cause was. Then we walked into the medicine room, its one on one through a half barn style doorway. they had 2 tops but i think they got them mixed up because what they said was headband was all purple. then they had like 3 or 4 lows. 2 kind of black hash priced differently but looks exactly the same. The place was cool but to bay-areaish, this is northern cali you cant do that. But the\'re tryin.

Posted August 28, 2009

Excellent club!! I was one of their first patients and the staff made me feel right at home. Great meds and the owner really knew what he was talking about! Ive been to all the clubs in the area and RVC has the best prices and meds around. Pay them a visit. You wont be dissapointed!

Posted August 26, 2009

I recently visited this club and the medicine was great.The people are very friendly and assist you in your needs.

Posted August 23, 2009

I just left River Valley Collective and I'm very impressed. Great hours, open later than everyone else. I like their private setting in downtown Redding! Nice varity of indoor and outdoor and their excracts were nice and strong! I've found them to have the best prices in town for the bigger bags! Great price breaks! Discounts for disabled, and county clean-ups. These guys are doing it right! Hope more clubs act like this!

Posted August 21, 2009

Great Location! Perfect spot! Finally a club that didn't go the dumb way! Their staff was great and store was very clean. They have many different programs to heal your body and soul! I will be only visiting those guys!

Posted August 18, 2009

I was looking for something a little private and RVC was just the thing I was looking for! Great meds at the best prices, and I do mean best prices!

Posted August 15, 2009

great meds! nice store!! over all they have great people!

Posted August 10, 2009

This place was very clean and the staff was great! Medican was outstanging! They have mostly indoor organics, but they also had the excracts too! This is the best place in town by far, and I've been to them all!
