About The Green Border & EP Cannabis Club

The Definitive Voice of the Borderland’s Cannabis Culture

Welcome to the intersection of two states, two laws, and one unified community.

The El Paso–Sunland Park region is unique. We live on the "Green Border", a dynamic line where the legal landscape shifts, but the culture remains connected. We were founded to navigate this complex reality.

The Green Border is an independent media outlet and collective dedicated to documenting the rapid evolution of the cannabis industry in the Southwest. We are not just enthusiasts; we are the archivists, analysts, and storytellers of the 915’s emerging cannabis era.

Our Mission

We exist to bridge the gap between curiosity and confidence. In a region where regulations can change by crossing a street, reliable information is essential.

• To Demystify: The legal difference between Texas and New Mexico is stark. We turn complex legislation and industry jargon into clear, actionable intelligence.
• To Curate: As the market floods with new dispensaries and products, we cut through the noise to highlight the businesses that prioritize quality, safety, and community.
• To Elevate: We are rewriting the narrative. We are moving the conversation away from stigma and toward a future of informed, responsible, and legal consumption.

What We Do

1. Market Intelligence From the bustling dispensaries in Sunland Park to the legislative halls in Austin and Santa Fe, we track the movers and shakers. We provide unbiased coverage of the local industry, helping you understand where the market is going.

2. The EP Cannabis Club This is the heartbeat of our organization. The Club is our community arm—fostering connections among locals who share a passion for the plant. We envision a space where patients, connoisseurs, and newcomers can share experiences and learn from one another without judgment.

3. Education & Advocacy Knowledge is safety. We advocate for best practices that protect both the consumer and the community image.
