Yes. Licensed dispensaries in Maine can accept medical marijuana cards from other states if those states allow them to use their cards out of state.

That depends on the state you visit; some states accept out-of-state MMJ cards while others do not. We recommend checking local medical cannabis rules and regulations before traveling.

Medical cardholders can grow up to three mature cannabis plants in their residence. The growing and harvested marijuana must not be within public sight.

  • playgrounds
  • sidewalks and roads
  • marijuana retail businesses
