First Minnesota cannabis shops open after supply challenges

RISE Dispensaries donates first-day adult-use cannabis sales profits to local nonprofits and plans expansion to more Minnesota cities, supporting community and veteran services.

  • Legacy Cannabis opened as Minnesota's first licensed adult-use cannabis dispensary off tribal land at 4:20 p.m. on Tuesday in Duluth.
  • This launch follows Minnesota's 2023 legalization of adult-use cannabis and long delays due to supply challenges and state licensing processes.
  • Along with Legacy, medical dispensaries Green Goods and RISE began adult-use sales at multiple locations across the Twin Cities and statewide this week.
  • Josh Wilken-Simon emphasized that many advocates have worked for years to shape Minnesota’s adult-use cannabis market around small, independent producers and to promote social equity for those impacted by drug policy injustices.
  • The openings mark the start of a craft cannabis market supported by tribal compacts for product supply and anticipate further expansion of licensed dispensaries statewide.
