There is a new marijuana dispensary on the Lower Eastern Shore.

It’s located in West Ocean City just off Route 50.

WBOC reports that Positive Energy was licensed back in 2016 by the state.

This makes it the first medical marijuana dispensary to open in Worcester County.

The dispensary requires patients to be registered with the state cannabis commission and must have a state certified medical provider.
