I get asked all the time the number of medical marijuana license holders we have in Oklahoma.
Here are the latest figures from the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority. As of March 1, the number of licenses by category was:
347,849 patient 1,314 caregiver 4,119 growers 2,211 dispensaries 1,200 processors 90 transporters 26 laboratories.
Patient licenses were up by more than 2,500 from the prior month, and caregiver licenses were up by 10, but the number of growers was down by a little more than 200. The number of dispensaries was down by 72, processors by 48 and transporters by eight. The number of labs was the same.
This is down from a peak of about 10,000 licensed grows at the end of 2021.
Here are the most recent license numbers for counties in our House district:
Garfield: 22 dispensaries, 20 growers, seven processors and zero transporters. Grant: three dispensaries, five growers, one processor and zero transporters. Kay: 23 dispensaries, 54 growers, seven processors and two transporters. Logan: 50 dispensaries, 199 growers, 80 processors and four transporters. Noble: five dispensaries, nine growers, two processors and zero transporters.
The total number of commercial licenses has dropped each month
