Marijuana dispensaries operate legally in Minnesota under MN Statute Chapter 342 (Cannabis Regulatory Act, effective August 1, 2023). Adults 21 or older with valid government-issued photo ID may purchase cannabis at any licensed marijuana dispensary — tribal-compact (Waabigwan Mashkiki and other tribal enterprises) or MN OCM-licensed. Waabigwan Mashkiki operates the Mahnomen flagship on the White Earth Reservation, plus Moorhead, Saint Cloud, and East Grand Forks. A fifth Chanhassen location opens 2026. Every Minnesota marijuana dispensary operates under METRC seed-to-sale tracking, third-party lab testing, and the same single-day purchase limits (2 oz flower / 8 g concentrate / 800 mg edible THC per MN Stat 342.09). The 10% cannabis tax (MN Stat 297G) applies at every adult-use dispensary in the state.
