Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear reported that The Post Dispensary in Ohio County will have a soft opening Dec. 13, starting at 10 a.m. CST and continuing until 6 p.m., or until supplies run out. This news makes The Post the first fully approved and licensed medical dispensary in the state. Product available was grown by Farmtucky, the first licensed cultivator to bring product to market.
“Our priority is ensuring Kentuckians suffering with serious medical conditions can have safe access to medical cannabis, as soon as possible, to get the relief they need,” said Gov. Beshear in a statement. “We’ll keep sharing more news as it’s available. We made a promise – a promise we kept. And now we’re just days away from the first safe medical cannabis being available in Kentucky for those who need it.”
The news comes after Beshear last week said he believed his state's market launch was just weeks away.
It's been more than two years since the state officially legalized medical cannabis and almost a whole year since the new laws kicked in.
