Cannabis Dispensaries in NEW BUFFALO

Cannabis retail in NEW BUFFALO, by the register

NEW BUFFALO accounts for 39 of the 859 licensed dispensaries Michigan currently lists, or 4.5% of the state's retail licences. Every entry on this page comes from that register rather than from businesses submitting themselves, which is the difference between a directory that shows who paid to appear and one that shows who may legally trade.

The 39 shops are held by 37 distinct licensees. JARS Cannabis holds the most with 2, and 1 other operator runs more than one site here. Ownership concentration is worth knowing because two shops under one licensee usually share buying, pricing and loyalty schemes, so they are less independent of each other than the shopfronts suggest.

Of these listings, 39 carry a street address, 0 carry coordinates precise enough to measure distance from, and 0 publish opening hours. Those three numbers differ because registers differ: some publish a full premises record, others little more than a name and a licence number. Where a field is missing here it is missing from the state’s own file, and we leave it blank rather than filling it in from somewhere else.

Michigan operates both an adult-use and a medical market under the Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency. Buying in NEW BUFFALO is open to anyone aged 21 or over with government-issued photo ID, and registered patients aged 18 or over. The minimum age for adult-use purchase is 21, and shops card on entry. Purchase and possession limits are statutory and change between sessions, so they are not repeated here; the regulator publishes the current numbers. Local authorities in most states can also restrict or ban retail within their own boundaries, which is why neighbouring towns of similar size can have very different counts.

Published expiry dates for NEW BUFFALO run from September 2, 2026 to September 10, 2027. A licence nearing expiry is not a warning sign — renewal is routine and registers often update days after the fact — but it is the date to check against the state register if a listing here looks out of step with what you find on the ground. Each listing on this page is republished only while the state still lists its licence as active, and the date we last read the register is shown on every dispensary page.

By class, the register describes them as 38 marihuana retailers, 1 tribal marihuana retailer. Classes matter because they set what a shop may sell and to whom, and because a state issues far more licences than it has dispensaries — growers, processors, transporters and testing labs all hold their own and none of them serve the public. Only retail classes appear in this directory.

By market, the register describes these as 39 adult-use. A shop permitted to serve both adult-use customers and registered patients is counted once, even where the state issues a separate permit for each. None publish a phone number. No website is shown for any of them because the register lists none, and guessing a domain from a business name would sooner or later send someone to the wrong company.

How much detail a listing carries is set by the regulator, not by the shop. Across Michigan's 859 active dispensary licences, 100% publish a street address, 0% a phone number and 0% coordinates. We track 24 states, and those shares run from near zero to a hundred per cent depending on the register. A state that releases only names and licence numbers produces thinner pages here, and the alternative — buying the missing fields from a marketplace or inferring them — would mean publishing things about named businesses that no regulator ever said.

Anything on this page can be checked without trusting us. Take a licence number from any listing, open the Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency's register, and the entry there should carry the same name and address. Where it does not, the register is right: regulators update continuously and this directory syncs on a schedule, so a licence surrendered this morning can still appear here this afternoon. That lag is the reason we show the date each record was last read rather than implying everything is live.

These records were read from the Michigan register at aca-prod.accela.com, last on 2026-08-04. That date is the limit of how current this page is: a shop licensed or closed since then will not appear until the next read, which is why the date sits on every listing rather than being implied.

Each listing links to its own page, where the licence number, its issue and expiry dates and the register it came from are set out in full, along with the nearest alternatives by measured distance. We publish a shop only while its licence is listed as active, and when one lapses the listing is deactivated rather than deleted so that a late renewal restores it intact. Ratings, review counts and written descriptions are deliberately absent throughout: we hold no sourced version of any of them, and an invented one would be worse than the gap.
