which opened to the general public on June 6, 2024.
The Leech Lake Cannabis Co. is a venture established by the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, which, according to a news release, “aims to promote economic growth and self-sufficiency for the Band while offering a safe, welcoming and educational environment for all customers.”
Red Lake and White Earth opened tribal dispensaries last August, when recreational cannabis use for adults was officially legal in Minnesota. Those two tribal nations already had medical cannabis facilities in place ahead of recreational legalization, unlike Leech Lake.
The Leech Lake Tribal Council adopted a new ordinance last August to establish a regulatory framework for cannabis sales and consumption, which will eventually allow individual band members to also explore business opportunities in the cannabis industry.
