In this edition . . . Adult-use goes live in Maryland. SunMed launches its new line of Sunnies edibles. Virtual and in-person visits to our greenhouse and more!

Banner coverage of today's rec launch in Maryland: "People thronged cannabis dispensaries across the Baltimore region on Saturday, eager to see, learn about and try the products that those over 21 with a state-issued ID are now able to purchase for recreational use."

"In Cecil County, SunMed Growers is spending $16 million on a new, 25,000-square-foot edibles factory. The facility will produce 50,000 to 60,000 cannabis-infused gummies and chocolates, as well as 10,000 baked goods, per day, according to SunMed President Jake Van Wingerden. He’s hoping to have the first batches of SunMed edibles on dispensary shelves by mid-to-late-July."

The Banner provides an interactive map of the 100 existing medical cannabis dispensaries authorized to sell to recreational customers. Watch for expansion when additional licenses are granted by the state in the future.

This is an exciting time for the state's cannabis industry and for consumers, who will now have access to safe and legal cannabis products. See how we're ramping up and check out SunMed Growers in a recent Baltimore Sun piece covering Saturday's adult-use launch.
