FRYEBURG, Maine â Riffing on the expression, âWater, water everywhere and not a drop to drink,â the same could be said about legal marijuana in New Hampshire.
Our state is surrounded by states that have legalized marijuana for personal use â Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts. Yet, in New Hampshire, it is available only for medical use through state-controlled dispensaries. And with a Legislature dominated by Republicans, legalizing its use and possession, or throwing the door open to retail medical marijuana stores seems like a pipe dream.
The legal/illegal demarcation is particularly noticeable here in the Mount Washington Valley, where just a few miles down the road in Maine are the Glass Cook, Best Budz, Great Atlantic Puffin Co. and CBW Labs.
