Jersey City’s second medicinal cannabis dispensary to open in August

Jersey City’s slow but burgeoning cannabis industry is starting to take shape, and it’s set to become one dispensary larger with a new medicinal store opening in Downtown next week.

“It feels amazing, it’s been a long time coming” said 30-year-old Amanda Handy, CEO and co-owner of downtown FLWR, which will be the second legal cannabis business in Jersey City when the doors open at 141 Newark Ave. on Aug. 4.
