NJ’s recreational marijuana marketplace is open for business. Recreational sales of cannabis for adults 21 and older started Thursday, with the first alternative treatment centers opening early in the day.
Sales of recreational cannabis won't start on the statewide opening day for adult-use sales at the Curaleaf dispensary in Edgewater Park, Burlington County.
Some of the largest marijuana companies own the dispensaries where adult-use sales are starting in New Jersey. They paid hefty fees as part of going first.
Jersey City officials say that even though state law doesn't carve out police from legal marijuana use while off duty, federal rules for gun buyers do.
