I'm sure it's only going to get worse with CT opening recreational dispensaries after the new year. I can see some of the border town dispensaries in MA taking a hit.

They have already taken a huge hit since NYC decided to look the other way as hundreds of gray market dispensaries have opened there. A huge part of the boom in far western Mass was NYC money. Not any longer.

Factor in ny opening in the near future and the pittsfield/berkshire dispensaries will take a massive hit.

When I was home in the Berkshires in June, all the cars in the parking lot at the dispensary in Lee had NY plates. 😄

My point exactly. The other berkshire dispensaries are pretty much the same tons of ny plates.

Sure will. I think Berkshire Roots and Bloom Brothers will survive, but the other ones are questionable.

Temescal will be fine too. They always have a good amount in the parking lot. All NY plates. There were lots of upstate NY towns/counties that voted against dispensaries. VT will have dispensaries too. Competition will be good!

My husband and I got to Maine which is a short 1.5 hour drive from us in MA and the prices are crumbs compared to here!
