Mississippi State Department of Health · last updated

MSDH is now in the planning stages of the many elements needed to implement a successful medical marijuana program for the state. We have been researching this project over the last several months, and intend to meet the aggressive timeframe of August 15, 2021. Regulations for all aspects of the program, including production and licensing for sale, must be in place by July 1, 2021. As we make progress we will keep the public fully informed. We understand the broad public interest in this program, and ask for your patience as we develop the necessary plans to go forward late next summer.
