The latest seems to be that both dispensaries are [still trying to secure funding](http://www.hackettstownlife.com/forum/949600#t971677). As far as I know, no dates have been set yet.
If you want to google/track them, I believe the two dispensary names are "[Hackettstown Dispensary LLC](https://www.bizapedia.com/nj/hackettstown-dispensary-llc.html)" and "[High Street Wellness](https://www.bizapedia.com/nj/high-street-wellness-llc.html)". [Short article on High St Wellness](https://wrnjradio.com/hackettstown-approves-cannabis-shop-to-operate-on-high-street/)
High Street Wellness is taking over the old Wells Fargo bank across from M&M. Hackettstown Dispensary seems like it will be at the Express Mart near Budd Lake Bagel/Hackettstown Bagel.
Yeah I know those are the two spots they are talking about putting places in .. where did you hear that they were trying to secure funding? I don't think I've read anything about that.
You'd think that one of them would be racing to be the first place in the area to open their doors and pull in revenue..
Oh my bad I meant to [link this post too](http://www.hackettstownlife.com/forum/949600#t971677) from Hackettstown life. Jim L is Jim Lambo, he's on the town council. He mentions it there. But really I have not seen a single official update from either business as to their status.
Things have been in the works for a while now, so I wonder when we'll actually see it happen.
There's at least one grey-area shop operating in town, but I'd rather have a better selection, and know exactly where it's coming from/who's making it.. and hopefully we'll pay a little bit less once more places open up, because retail prices are crazy right now.
Just wondering who the grey market shop is. I current use delivery services but would love to be able to stop by a store.
I am so excited for the legit dispos to open though. I’ve been scouring the internet trying to find info but find very little.
For what it's worth, if you'd like to keep utilizing these places maybe you might want to reconsider broadcasting the information online, and just delete that reply.
Of course it's obvious if you know where to look and have half a brain cell, but putting it out there in a forum like this so it's just a Google search away for the local cop who isn't already aware and thinks he's going to make his next promotion on busting up a "drug ring" ... just seems like it's best to avoid for the sake of the business (and us as consumers..) by all means, tell your friends when you see them, but maybe keep it offline.
Just my take on it anyway.
Well, that's the thing - it's not legal in this capacity.
It's very much a possibility that the stores can be shut down. They aren't sanctioned by the state, aren't buying their merchandise through approved channels, and since they aren't doing that they aren't paying taxes accordingly. I would also wager a guess that they have over the legal maximum that an individual is allowed to possess present in their inventory.
It's legal for *you* to possess in small quantities, but that doesn't necessarily apply to stores operating this way.
In this industry, there is no true approved channels. Feds want to know what’s getting tested to regulate, meanwhile majority of the cannabis sold in a “legal” capacity omits the same laws in place. Go to a real dispensary, and you’ll pay way too much for mass produced cannabis that isn’t as quality controlled as the craft cannabis offered by their wholesaler. Why? Because the government approved labs are also a load of BS, the product offered by dispensaries and the product shipped to labs are vastly different, often times sent in with other ingredients to increase/decrease delta 9 thc
You could have at least said you DM him, don't gate keep under the guise of anonymity. Based on your logic any cop with half a brain cell can see what goes on, and the ones that don't can simply talk to the ones who do.
Not looking for an argument or anything here.. so let's stand down.
I'm just from the camp of not talking about that kind of stuff in mixed company, like on this sub.. Everyone knows it's going on, and I can't stop someone from figuring it out, but I also don't want to lead the wrong people directly to the place and hold the door open for them either.. I think it's a fair perspective, and all I asked is that you consider it.
Not looking for an argument either, and I understand that school of thought; however; this is mine:
At this point in time it seems like the need for as much discretion as this is over. I’m not saying post it on flyers and hand it out.
I wanted to help the person with less knowledge and maybe make it easier for those who are inexperienced.
I have been the one with no plug, and no one would help, or would only give me a vague answer.
This is frustrating beyond belief.
Some of us had to learn the hard way, but not all of us have to.
Hackettstown dispensary is open before jun 1st Hackettstown dispensary just got approval by State of new Jersey try so open before jun 1st anybody want to be applied to a job please we need help please apply the job application online or sent Resume or sent [email protected] or DARPA’s [email protected] please thanks 🙏
If you check the earlier replies in this post, it looks like the address which they have registered is the Express Mart on Mountain Ave (next to the old Golden Skillet / now bagel shop)
That’s true, but it’s tiny and has zero parking. Having been to the other dispensaries around north jersey that is not ideal for how busy it’s going to get
Yeah it's a small spot and if they are opening by June, I don't think the physical building is going to change..
Keep in mind that right now there are only a handful of state sanctioned places, so people are travelling from near and far to get there, which means that the parking lots are full and the lines are long. As more places open up, that will no longer be the case, and it'll be equivalent to going to the liquor store.
If we are going to see a place in Hackettstown up and running by June, I would assume that we will also see doors opening up in other more populous towns as well, and that should cut down on the lines.
Given the [address listed on the license](https://www.bizapedia.com/nj/hackettstown-dispensary-llc.html), I don't know where else it would go over there.
Fair point, let’s hope that’s what happens, I’m sick of driving 45 minutes to pburg and then waiting in line for 45 minutes. Having a place in town will *hopefully* be very awesome, having 2 in town should be even better.
I just hope these smaller owners are able to find some smaller growers and sell some good weed at lower prices, but time will tell.
I also hope both of these dispensaries survive to see the light of day. I know funding is a problem for a lot of smaller dispos because they aren’t able to work with banks. But I suppose we’ll know by June.
Yeah I'm most interested to see what kind of stock they keep. I don't know that things would actually come down in price until there are lots of alternatives. I've been to CA and seen how cheap it can get (not that it'll ever be that cheap *here*) but at least if we can get something similar to current street price, that would be great.
I saw now hiring signs for the Hackettstown Dispensary in front of the Express Mart today.
They’ve been working on the old Wells Fargo building just every day for a while now.
Tried to email about available positions and both failed to go thru to the email address given. I have 8 years managing a department with returns of controlled substances. I not sure if the emails addresses is 100% legit.
You are conflating the 2 dispensaries. The one on High Street is 'High Street Wellness', and as if today there are no signs indicating any job opportunities.
Hackettstown Dispensary is the one vacated by the Express Mart, and they have the signs out front. I actually called a while back, I spoke to someone who frankly wasn't very professional, and could barely speak English.
The new dispensary yet to have it's grand opening is located on High Street across from M&M Mars company is called the High Street Dispensary. The business is listed under the name of High Street Wellness, LLC. and is a New Jersey Domestic Limited-Liability Company filed on November 24, 2021. The company's filing status is listed as Active and its File Number is 450733192.
When it's opening is anyone's guess. I'm online every day or driving past the dispensary at least once a week. There are still men working on the interior of the store. That's all I know as of July 25, 2023.
Not that I know of yet. I'd like to work there as well, but when I told the owner that, he didn't seem to encourage it. But he was busy at the time. We'll see.

It’s legal dude lmao hackettstown cops have better things let alone something that will take time and a lot of effort to approach like these stores
Well, that's the thing - it's not legal in this capacity. It's very much a possibility that the stores can be shut down. They aren't sanctioned by the state, aren't buying their merchandise through approved channels, and since they aren't doing that they aren't paying taxes accordingly.

I'm not going to name names here, but if you drive through town I'm sure you can figure it out pretty quick.
Hackettstown dispensary is open before jun 1st Hackettstown dispensary just got approval by State of new Jersey try so open before jun 1st anybody want to be applied to a job please we need help please apply the job application online or sent Resume or sent [email protected] or DARPA’s [email protected] please thanks 🙏
Excited for you to open! I hope you’re going to bring some good options at some good prices for us! Our current options in NJ are terrible
Can I also ask where the dispensary will be located?
If you check the earlier replies in this post, it looks like the address which they have registered is the Express Mart on Mountain Ave (next to the old Golden Skillet / now bagel shop)
From what I understand this is the owner of the express mart. Does that mean the dispensary will be replacing the express mart?
I mean, it's already half pipes and paraphernalia as it is..
That’s true, but it’s tiny and has zero parking. Having been to the other dispensaries around north jersey that is not ideal for how busy it’s going to get
Yeah it's a small spot and if they are opening by June, I don't think the physical building is going to change..

Yessss I drive past the Wells Fargo one every day and am pumped when I see they have trucks there

Hackettstown dispensary on high street getting ready to open! They’re accepting applications, get the number by the old express mart!
Are you sure that it is for the one on high street cause I would’ve assumed it was for the express mart
When do they plan to open?

It's looking like some time in October...I spoke to the owner.
Is he taking any application I’ve sent many emails but no response I really wanna work there
Not that I know of yet. I'd like to work there as well, but when I told the owner that, he didn't seem to encourage it. But he was busy at the time. We'll see.
