Martha's Vineyard is about to run out of pot
The Island Time cannabis dispensary on June 4, 2024, in Vineyard Haven, mass. Unless something changes, Martha's Vineyard is about to run out of pot, affecting more than 230 registered medical users and thousands more recreational ones. An 81-year-old woman on Martha's Vineyard drove up to the Island Time dispensary last week seeking her usual order of pot.
But Fine Fettle, a Connecticut-based company that had been the sole commercial grower on Martha's Vineyard and also runs the island's other dispensary, told Rose last year that it planned to stop growing pot on Martha's Vineyard and would close its store when its existing supplies ran out. But over time, pot became cheaper with more varied options on the Massachusetts mainland, while the costs of employing testers on the island rose, making it uneconomic to continue such a niche operation, Zachs said. He added that many people bring their own supplies over on the ferry.
Rose, 77, has lived on Martha's Vineyard for more than 20 years and opened his Island Time store three years ago. For now, he's keeping his core staff of five on the payroll. The dispensary's green logo looks like a hippyish take on the famous Starbucks emblem, with a relaxed woman smelling a bloom under the words “Stop and smell the flower.” But Rose is anything but relaxed these days.
In the lawsuit, Rose outlines how he told the commission in November that his business faced an existential crisis because Fine Fettle would no longer be growing pot. In March, he took a chance by buying some pot on the mainland and shipping it across on the ferry. “We're cautiously optimistic that we'll be able to reach resolution, but if we can't, we'll be prepared to make the arguments in court," said Vicente lawyer Adam Fine.
