Hempie's - Sanford
3274 NC 87 S, Sanford, NC 27332
Hempie's is a hemp dispensary at 3274 NC 87 S in Sanford, NC, specializing in THCa flower, edibles, vapes, Delta-8, and Delta-9. The shop serves Lee County, a community roughly 45 miles southwest of Raleigh that sits at the geographic center of the Piedmont region, surrounded by more rural communities in Moore, Chatham, and Harnett counties. The NC 87 location places the shop on one of Sanford's main southern arterials, accessible to residents from across the county as well as those traveling in from surrounding communities. Part of the Hempies Triangle chain, this location brings a consistent product lineup of THCa flower, edibles, vapes, and Delta-8 to a market that historically has had limited access to the quality hemp retail available closer to Raleigh. The staff maintain the chain's welcoming approach, serving a customer base that spans a wide age range and varies significantly in hemp familiarity. For Lee County residents who previously had no dedicated hemp dispensary nearby, the Sanford location fills a genuine gap in the regional retail landscape.
Sanford, the seat of Lee County, sits at the southwestern edge of the Triangle's orbit where US-1 and US-421 meet. Its two hemp shops make it the main option for a stretch of central North Carolina that would otherwise have to drive toward Cary or Fuquay-Varina to find a dispensary.
Hempie's operates south of town at 3274 NC-87 South, while Your CBD Store sits on the busy South Horner Boulevard retail corridor at 2821 S Horner Boulevard. The two cover complementary ground, with a full hemp selection of THCa flower, edibles, vapes, and CBD between them.
Sanford's location on US-1 makes its dispensaries a natural stop for customers in Pittsboro, Fuquay-Varina, and the broader Lee County area. Both shops serve adults 21 and older, accept walk-ins, and require no medical card or registration for hemp-derived products.
