Grand Junction has 10 dispensaries licensed by the Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division (MED). Adults 21 and older with a valid photo ID can buy, including visitors from Utah, and 1 store also holds a medical license. It is one of Colorado's newer markets: the city allowed stores only after voters approved sales in April 2021.
Grand Junction voters banned medical marijuana businesses in 2011, and a later city ordinance also prohibited retail stores. In the April 6, 2021 city election, voters lifted the ban and approved a special marijuana sales tax, and the City Council then adopted rules for cannabis businesses. The result is a small market of newer shops, every rated one with at least 4.6 stars on Google.

Cannabis Taxes in Grand Junction
Grand Junction is one of the Colorado cities that adds its own cannabis tax. On top of Colorado's 15% retail marijuana sales tax, the city charges its 3.39% general sales tax plus a 6% cannabis tax, which the city says is used for cannabis regulation enforcement and priorities in its parks, recreation and open space master plan. Mesa County sales tax also applies, and the receipt shows each line. The 15% state excise tax is built into prices at wholesale, and medical purchases pay the 2.9% state sales tax instead.
