Cannabis Status: Open
The state of Massachusetts legalized cannabis in 2017, and licenses were issued in March 2018.

Update Nov 23, 2024: For the first time, microbusinesses are permitted to apply for additional license types beyond their initial scope. This expansion allows microbusiness license holders to acquire up to three Cultivation licenses and three Product Manufacturer licenses, inclusive of their original Microbusiness license. This change notably enables them to exceed their previous cultivation limits of a 5,000 square-foot canopy and a 2,000-pound limit for marijuana product manufacturing operations. Furthermore, microbusinesses are now eligible to hold other types of licenses, such as Retail and Transport licenses.
