Toms Rivers’ First Recreational Cannabis Shop Gets Closer To Opening

New Jersey voted to legalize marijuana in November 2020. According to Wikipedia, "On April 21, 2022, New Jersey cannabis sales legislation finally went into effect - even though it passed by ballot initiative with New Jersey voters back in November 2020." Here we are in the spring of 2023 and the first "recreational" cannabis shop is getting closer to the opening in (South) Toms River.
