Reason To Celebrate

"Thanks to the residents of New Jersey, and the courageous leadership of Governor Murphy, Senator Scutari, the Cannabis Regulatory Commission, and the countless township and county commissioners statewide, cannabis will realize its full potential to make a lasting, positive impact on the state's economy and society. On behalf of Verano and Zen Leaf, we are excited and ready to welcome the first personal use cannabis customers in the great state of New Jersey on April 21st."
