A new medical marijuana dispensary opened in Neptune Friday, becoming the 16th in the state as New Jersey expands medical cannabis and looks to launch legal weed sales for people 21 and older.
Zen Leaf opened to patients at 10 a.m. at the site of a shuttered Smashburger. The company’s first dispensary in Elizabeth opened last spring.
“We’re expecting this to be a very busy store,” said Anthony Marsico, executive vice president of Verano, the Illinois-based company that runs Zen Leaf. “This is a widely underserved area.”
So, where s the line to get in?
Until Friday, Gray had been driving nearly an hour to buy medical marijuana at the Breakwater dispensary in Cranbury, which helps minimize the pain of a motorcycle injury that sometimes makes it difficult to sleep and eat.
Now, he s just five minutes away from Zen Leaf Neptune, which officially opened Friday along Route 66, at the site of the former Smashburger restaurant.
“This is right up the street. It’s closer. It’s more convenient,” said Gray, a barber living and working in Neptune. “It keeps things legit. The fact that everybody can make money off of it, at the end of the day, it’s helping patients and everybody. Nobody’s doing it under the table.
