Online Dispensary in Shediac, NB

Shediac calls itself the Lobster Capital of the World, and it backs that up with a 90-tonne concrete lobster sculpture standing at the town’s western entrance since 1990, one of the most photographed roadside attractions in the Maritimes. The name itself comes from a Mi’kmaq word describing something like which comes from far away, likely a reference to Shediac Bay or the currents of the nearby Petitcodiac River. Acadian settlers arrived here in 1751, fleeing unrest in Nova Scotia, and a French officer named Charles Deschamps de Boishebert later used the settlement as a military base during the French and Indian War. The town’s lobster industry took off commercially in 1861, when local resident William Blizzard opened one of the region’s first lobster processing operations.

That industry gave Shediac its identity for good in 1949, when the town held its first Lobster Festival, now one of the oldest running festivals in New Brunswick and drawing tens of thousands of visitors each July for lobster boils, an Acadian midway and a nightly lobster-eating contest. Parlee Beach, just outside downtown, regularly ranks among the finest saltwater beaches in North America, with water warm enough by midsummer to rival beaches far south of the border. Shediac has even carried that connection abroad, becoming sister cities with Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, in 1970 over their shared love of the crustacean. Today Shediac is home to over 8,800 residents on New Brunswick’s Northumberland Strait coast. Weed Market ships to Shediac addresses the same way it does anywhere else in New Brunswick, fast, tracked and completely discreet.
