This winter, Trilogy Wellness is excited to be partnering with Mitch Bricks, Inc. to support community members struggling with homelessness at local Baltimore shelters!
The mission of Mitch Bricks is to connect communities through educational play and friendship by sourcing volunteers to serve and donations to assist the economically disadvantaged.
This unique organization was founded by fourth-grader Mitch Villavaso in 2017 when he and his friends started visiting local Baltimore shelters to play Legos with the child residents. Mitch believes the Legos are fun, but having a friend who cares is the most special gift! Today, Mitch Bricks brings multiple programs and events to local shelters and aftercares in the Baltimore area, helping to provide basic needs for residents by sourcing necessities from the community.
Trilogy is now joining in on their efforts by collecting donations right in our lobby to kick off the holiday season and the new year!
Throughout December 2024 and January 2025, Trilogy is hosting a community drive to collect toiletry items and cash donations for Mitch Bricks. Additionally, Trilogy pint glasses are on sale for $10, with all sales also being donated to the organization. All toiletry items will be used to create Blessing Bags for adult and child residents of Eastside Family Shelter in Rosedale, Maryland. Items needed to craft these bags include:washcloths, bars of soap, toothbrushes (travel or regular sized), toothpaste (travel or regular sized), small bottles of mouth wash, small bottles of shampoo and conditioner, brushes or combs, deodorant, hand lotion, body spray, and razors.
As a special thank you for donating, all customers who contribute at least 3 items or $5 will receive a coupon for 35% off 1 item from Trilogy! Don’t miss out on this opportunity to help bless your neighbors at your local Baltimore shelters in need this holiday season and get a gift of our gratitude in return.
Enjoying affordable cannabis in Maryland doesn’t have to be difficult. Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or a new enthusiast, there are plenty of ways to get the most out of your products without overspending. We have some of the best ways to find affordable cannabis in Maryland.
Buy in Bulk (When It Makes Sense)
Purchasing larger quantities, like an ounce instead of smaller increments, often comes with discounts, especially when we have our Big Bag specials (7g and up). For example, an pre-packed eighth may cost $40-$50, but a pre-packed quarter is generally priced around $65. Our house packed flower is usually even less! Purchasing by the gram or individual pre-roll can add up quickly, especially for those with higher tolerances who are purchasing more frequently.
Look for Deals and Discounts
Keep an eye out for our daily deals, first-time customer specials, Flash sales, and loyalty programs. We also offer discounts for those with birthdays, veterans, and most days have something special for our medical patients. Signing up for our newsletter or our loyalty program keeps you in-the-know on our latest deals.
Choose Value Strains
Premium strains might have higher potency or exotic genetics, but mid-tier options often provide comparable effects at a fraction of the cost. Don’t overlook smaller nugs or “shake” packages—they’re perfect for edibles, rolling joints, or vaporizing.
Invest in Accessories That Save Product
Using high-quality accessories like vaporizers or grinders can extend the life of your cannabis. Vaporizers extract cannabinoids more efficiently, and you’re actually able to utilize the “used” cannabis when cooking edibles. Vaped cannabis is decarboxylated from the vaporizer already, so it’s ready to throw in some butter or baked goods without any complex cooking. Grinders like Stache’s Grynder have compartments for keef, allowing each nug you grind to produce finely-milled, extra potent keef. Adding bits of this to your flower means you get to feel the effects while using less product overall.
Consider Edibles
Instead of purchasing 10 packs of 10 mg edibles every so often and letting the cost add up, look for edibles in higher dosages and split them up into small pieces. Medical patients can buy 40 mg edibles, and even for our low-dose crowds, 40 mg edibles split into 4 pieces means a 40 mg 10 pack becomes a 10 mg 40 pack. Not a medical patient? Consider purchasing “ratio edibles” with additional cannabinoids that can make your high much more fulfilling.
Experiment with Microdosing
Lower doses can help you find the sweet spot where you experience desired effects without overconsumption. Microdosing stretches your stash and may improve your overall experience.
Explore Different Formats
Concentrates like live resin, rosins, hash, budders, badders, and shatters may have a higher upfront cost but are extremely potent, meaning you’ll use less product per session. Similarly, tinctures and capsules can offer precise dosing and last longer in your system, meaning you don’t have to dose as often.
Use Fresh Products Wisely
Proper storage is crucial to prevent cannabis from drying out or losing potency. Invest in airtight, UV-protected containers, and store them in a cool, dark place. Keeping your stash fresh ensures you get full value from every purchase.
Consider DIY Options
Roll your own joints or pack your own pre-rolls instead of buying pre-made options. You can add concentrates to your pre-rolls and make them go even further.
Don’t Overlook Shake or Trim
Pre-ground cannabis, often referred to as “shake” or “trim,” consists of smaller buds and pieces that break off during handling and packaging. While shake is generally less potent than whole flower, it’s a budget-friendly option that shines for specific uses:
Perfect for Edibles: Shake is ideal for making cannabutter, oils, or infusions since potency isn’t a primary concern in these preparations.
Great for Infused Joints: For those who enjoy infused joints, shake can be paired with concentrates to create hand-rolled options that are both flavorful and potent without wasting premium whole flower.
Convenient for Casual Use: Shake is pre-ground and ready to use, saving time for rolling or packing bowls, especially for those on a budget.
We offer shake or trim at a fraction of the price of whole flower, making it a versatile and economical choice for creative cannabis enthusiasts.
Looking for affordable cannabis in Maryland doesn’t mean compromising on quality or experience. By planning smart purchases, taking advantage of discounts, and exploring creative ways to use your products, you can enjoy cannabis without overspending.

TRILOGY ASKS CUSTOMERS TO ‘RISE UP’ THIS MONTH TO SUPPORT LOCAL ANIMAL SHELTER
By: Dan Taylor, Trilogy Marketing Coordinator
ELLICOTT CITY, Md- Trilogy Wellness and Rise Above Animal Rescue and Sanctuary want to make sure cats and dogs who are placed in shelters go home to loving and caring homes.
The entire month of March, we’re offering guests and patients at Trilogy Wellness a chance to donate to this wonderful organization in Pasadena. If you donate $5.00, you will receive a $5.00 bounce back card to use on your next visit.
This campaign to find pets loving homes will coincide with Trilogy’s 6th “Cannaversary”, the weekend of March 22-24. That weekend will also give people a chance to adopt a pet right on site at Trilogy Wellness during our Rise Above Rescue Adoption Event, on Saturday March 23rd from 12:00pm-4:00pm.
Last year, Trilogy Wellness helped set a record for the organization. It was the most animals they have ever adopted at one event. Six cats and four puppies went home to some loving owners.
“We focus on animals that need the most help – those that are sick, injured, elderly, feral, or need extensive medical care.”
Rise Above Animal Rescue and Sanctuary became an official non-profit animal rescue in 2018. Prior to this status, the organization had been in place for years prior with the goal and focus always being on the welfare of animals.
We’re thrilled to celebrate one of our own, Adam Scher, who has been recognized as Maryland Leaf Magazine’s Maryland Budtender of the Month for February 2024! Adam joined Trilogy Wellness when we opened our doors in 2018, and over the years, he’s become an integral part of our team and a familiar face to many of our customers. Known for his expertise, compassion, and dedication, Adam has a way of connecting with each customer and helping them find exactly what they need. His knowledge and passion for cannabis have made a genuine difference in the lives of those he serves as a Maryland Budtender.
This recognition is well-deserved, and we couldn’t be prouder to have Adam on our team. He exemplifies the values and commitment to quality service that we strive for at Trilogy Wellness every day.
Adam’s journey with Trilogy has been one of growth, as he’s continually expanded his knowledge and refined his approach to customer care. He doesn’t just provide product recommendations; he takes time to listen to each customer’s unique needs, creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for anyone seeking guidance or advice. This personalized approach has built strong relationships with our customers, many of whom come back regularly to consult with Adam specifically.
His passion for helping others shines through in every interaction, whether he’s assisting a new patient exploring medical cannabis for the first time or supporting a long-time customer looking for a new product to try. Adam’s dedication reminds us all why we’re here: to create a positive, supportive experience for everyone who walks through our doors.
At Trilogy Wellness, we believe our team is what truly sets us apart. Each of our team members is a valued part of our success, and Adam’s recognition as Budtender of the Month is a wonderful reminder of the difference that compassionate, knowledgeable staff can make. We’re honored to have Adam with us and look forward to seeing him continue to make a positive impact on the lives of our customers. Thank you, Adam, for your hard work and commitment to excellence!

ELLICOTT CITY, MD-The Boomer generation may have led the cannabis craze in the 1960’s and 1970’s, but this time they’re returning to the plant and consuming it without ever having to light up.
According to the Sleep Foundation, some 30% of adults 60 and older deal with sleep issues. Boomers are now relying on edible cannabis or gummies, to alleviate the issue.
According to data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, the number of cannabis users who are part of the ‘boomer generation’, has tripled since 2009. The number of boomers who tried cannabis for the first time in 2021 reached 35%.
Medical professionals who recommend or prescribe the plant, say patients who ingest edibles where the ratio is 1:1, or one part THC and one part CBD, respond the best. CBD helps to ease anxiety and inflammation and THC then helps as a muscle relaxer that also elevates your mood.
One of the big issues that seniors need to take notice of when consuming cannabis for the first time, is that they’re in safe space. Doctors advise older Americans to leave a nightlight on in their bathrooms and make sure there is a clear path.
But with ingestion of edibles or tinctures comes risk of taking too much too quickly. But patients who go ‘low and slow’, have the best results. Health care professionals say as we age so too does our metabolism. That means 2.5mg of THC or perhaps 5mg of THC may be all a patient needs in an edible to get that relief.
