In June 2016, former Gov. John Kasich signed a bill into law that authorizes use by patients with 21 conditions, including cancer or chronic pain, in the form of edibles, oils, patches and vaporizing. Patients and their caregivers will be allowed to possess up to a 90 day supply. Smoking or home growing it is barred.
Of the 56 provisional licenses for dispensaries approved last summer by the state, two were in Butler County. In addition to Strawberry Fields in Monroe, the other was the Bloom Medicinals, the medical marijuana dispensary in Seven Mile that opened Thursday.
Gould, who has been working on the medical marijuana business for seven years, said the company’s other Ohio dispensaries will open on the following dates: Oct. 29 in Marietta, Oct. 30 in Dayton and Oct. 31 in Logan.
