US (KY): State gives a preview of where dispensaries will be located

Medical cannabis may not be a reality for Kentuckians yet, but the state has set up an online resource to show where approved dispensaries will be located. With 39 dispensary locations established and over 10,000 cardholders in the state, Kentucky is providing an online tracker at kymedcan.ky.gov to show patients where the products will be available.

"None of these dispensaries are open yet, but you can go ahead and see where the dispensaries will be located so that you can make plans when they're open, how you're going to secure your medical cannabis," Gov. Andy Beshear said Thursday.

With only a handful of dispensaries possibly opening this year, the commonwealth is allowing those with medical cannabis cards to renew them for free in 2026.

"It's a $25 fee, but we recognize that while we expect some of these dispensaries to be open this year, you may have gotten one in January and have not been able to use it at least for this first half of the year," the governor explained.
