Stage 02 — The numbers
978 Payne Ave, North Tonawanda
One address. Everything on this page family is a drive from this door.
Distances and drive times are OSRM-routed estimates from 978 Payne Ave, rounded to whole miles and minutes — not a promise of exact travel time.
Stage 09 — The nose
What Payne Avenue smells like on a Saturday
There is no drive — you are already in North Tonawanda. The shop sits on Payne Avenue, a few minutes off Twin Cities Memorial Highway (NY-425), the road that carries the rest of this page family in.
North Tonawanda is the home base: everything Aroma grows, jars and sells starts and ends at this one address. No second location, no branch across town.
Stage 06 — The counter
We would rather send you home with less than the wrong thing.
Whether you walked or drove four blocks, the counter works the same way: honest prices with the tax already in, staff who know the jar, and a room that does not feel like a warehouse.

| Vapor & Carts | 2–5 min | 2–3 hrs | Cartridges and all-in-ones. |
