FERGUSON - The medical marijuana industry in Missouri is preparing for expansion into recreational sales. Missouri voters approved legalizing recreational marijuana on Tuesday by passing Amendment 3.
Illinois legalized recreational cannabis in 2020.
“We’ve had a lot of shoppers going across the river, and we can stop that now,” said Tom Bommarito, one of the owners of the Greenlight Medical Marijuana Dispensary in Ferguson.
The dispensary is opening a new space with a two-day event on Friday and Saturday. Bommarito describes it as a farmer’s market atmosphere.
“We’ll have eight separate vendors here,” he said.
