  • Can I Use My Maryland Medical Marijuanas Card in Other States?

    That depends on the State you visit; some states accept out-of-state MMJ cards, while others do not allow a medical marijuana patient from another state to purchase. We recommend checking local medical cannabis rules and regulations before traveling.

  • How Much Medical Marijuana Can You Legally Grow in Maryland?

    Maryland does not permit home cultivation for medical cannabis patients at this time. It can be punished as simple possession or possession intended to deliver if you possess more than enough for personal use. Licensed growers certified by the MMCC can cultivate cannabis within the State once they have met background requirements and regulations.

    Cannabis usage in public carries a civil fine of up to 500 USD in the State of Maryland.

    • Only those who can prove Maryland residency can apply for medical marijuana treatment via Maryland’s medical marijuana program (valid driver’s license, Government ID, utility bill)
    • A Maryland resident must also have medical history showing a diagnosis that qualifies a licensed marijuana doctor to recommend them as a patient that can legally obtain medical cannabis.
  • Becoming a Caregiver in Maryland

    Caregivers can apply to help patients in Maryland online once they have met specific requirements. All caregivers must be 21 years old and register with the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission for a 50 USD fee. A caregiver must also be a Maryland resident, proving their address with a valid driver’s license or state identification card. Once a caregiver has their valid Caregiver ID Card, they can purchase medical cannabis from Maryland dispensaries and transport it to their patient. Maryland caregivers can assist up to five patients at once, and patients may have two designated caregivers.
