Vermont's Road to Recreational Cannabis

Vermont has had a relatively progressive stance on cannabis, being one of the early adopters of medical marijuana and then moving towards recreational legalization. Here’s a brief timeline of Vermont’s road to recreational cannabis:

  1. 2004 – Vermont legalized medical marijuana, allowing patients with certain qualifying conditions to use cannabis with a doctor’s recommendation.
  2. 2013 – The state decriminalized possession of small amounts of cannabis, reducing penalties for possession of up to an ounce to a civil fine.
  3. January 2018 – Vermont became the first state to legalize recreational cannabis through the legislative process, rather than a ballot initiative, when Governor Phil Scott signed H. 511 into law. This law allowed for the possession and cultivation of small amounts of cannabis for personal use but did not establish a regulated market for sales.
  4. October 2020 – Governor Phil Scott allowed S. 54, a bill to regulate and tax cannabis sales, to become law without his signature. This law laid the groundwork for a regulated recreational cannabis market in Vermont.
  5. April 2021 – The Vermont Cannabis Control Board was established to oversee the regulation and licensing of the state’s adult-use cannabis market.
  6. March 2022 – The Vermont Cannabis Control Board began accepting applications for recreational cannabis cultivators, product manufacturers, wholesalers, testing laboratories, and retailers.
  7. October 1, 2022 – Vermont’s first adult-use cannabis retailers opened their doors to customers, marking the official launch of the state’s recreational cannabis market.


As Vermont’s recreational cannabis industry continues to develop, the state is focusing on creating a well-regulated, equitable, and sustainable market that prioritizes consumer safety and supports local businesses.

Traceability, Compliance & Regulation in Vermont

In Vermont, the use of Biotrack and the implementation of traceability, compliance, and regulation measures are crucial aspects of the state’s newly established recreational cannabis market. Here’s an overview of how these elements work together in Vermont:

  1. Biotrack: Vermont has selected Biotrack as its official seed-to-sale tracking system for both medical and adult-use cannabis establishments. This decision was made by the Vermont Cannabis Control Board after a competitive bidding process. Biotrack is a well-established system used in several other states with legal cannabis markets.
  2. Traceability: Licensed cannabis businesses in Vermont are required to use Biotrack to track all cannabis plants and products throughout the supply chain, from cultivation to sale. This involves the use of unique identifier tags assigned to each plant and product package, allowing for comprehensive monitoring of the movement of cannabis within the state’s regulated market.
  3. Compliance: To maintain their licenses, cannabis businesses must adhere to strict regulations set forth by the Vermont Cannabis Control Board. This includes regular reporting of inventory, sales, and transfers in Biotrack, as well as compliance with packaging, labeling, security, and record-keeping requirements.
  4. Regulation: The Vermont Cannabis Control Board is responsible for overseeing the licensing, regulation, and enforcement of the state’s adult-use cannabis market. The board has established rules governing cultivation, manufacturing, testing, and retail sales of cannabis products to ensure a well-regulated and safe market.
  5. Testing: All cannabis products sold in Vermont must be tested by licensed independent laboratories to verify product safety, potency, and quality. These test results are recorded in Biotrack to ensure that only compliant products reach consumers.
  6. Inspections and Enforcement: The Vermont Cannabis Control Board conducts regular inspections of licensed cannabis businesses to monitor compliance with state regulations and Biotrack reporting requirements. Businesses found to be in violation may face penalties, including fines, license suspensions, or revocations.


As Vermont’s recreational cannabis market matures, the use of Biotrack and the robust traceability, compliance, and regulation framework in place will help ensure a transparent, accountable, and safe industry that benefits both businesses and consumers.
