MARIJUANA IN NJ: New Jersey is one step closer to selling recreational marijuana following a big move Monday. On paper at least, recreational marijuana sales could very well be a win for all involved and then some. Siafa_Lewis reports
READ MORE:Monday’s decision by New Jersey’s Cannabis Regulatory Commission means that the seven approved operators in the state currently selling medical marijuana can begin selling recreational marijuana as well all within the next 30 days, some sooner.
“You’ll be able to come visit the Cannabist dispensary — is our name in Deptford. You should be able to be out there within the next two weeks once we go through the final checks with the state to make sure that we’re ready to go. So stay tuned,” Goers said. On paper at least, recreational marijuana sales could very well be a win for all involved and then some.“I think it’s a big boon for the state and it’s a really positive thing for our communities as a whole,” Goers said.“Adults, it’s 21 and up. All you need to do is bring down a valid government ID and come visit us at the Cannabist,” Goers said.“Adult-use customers are not just seeking the cannabis for purely recreational or social purpose.
While out-of-state residents will be able to purchase recreational marijuana in New Jersey, it is still illegal to cross state lines with it.And if you plan on stopping by a dispensary when recreational sales begin, you may experience some lines early on.
