Cannabis Status: Opening
Recent Update 2/1/23: New Jersey opened up for applications in December of 2021 and is accepting applications on an ongoing basis for Class 1 Cultivator Licenses, Class 2 Manufacturer License, Class 5 Retailers, and Testing Laboratories.
While there is a statewide cap on cultivator licenses, this will be lifted on February 22, 2023 and then additional rounds of cultivation licensing may begin.
