RIVER ROUGE (WWJ) - As the recreational marijuana industry continues to grow, the first dispensary in Wayne County is now open for business.
1st Quality Medz, off West Jefferson Avenue just south of Schaefer Highway in River Rouge, has been open for adult use sales since early January.
It has been legal for Michigan residents and visitors to have up to 2.5 ounces (71 grams) of marijuana on them and up to 10 ounces (284 grams) at home, since December 6, 2018. Recreational sales in Michigan became legal on Dec. 1, 2019.
Roughly 30 retailers across the state have licenses approved for recreational sales, though not all are selling yet.
The only other city in the metro area where you can currently purchase recreational marijuana is Ann Arbor.
