Laurel has 4 dispensaries licensed by the Maryland Cannabis Administration (MCA). To buy, you must be 21 and carry a valid government-issued photo ID, and adults visiting from other states can shop as well. The 4 stores all take registered Maryland patients too, and three of them are in Prince George's County while the fourth is across the line in Howard County.
Laurel sits halfway between Baltimore and Washington, where Prince George's, Howard, Anne Arundel and Montgomery counties come together, and its stores line U.S. Route 1, the old road between the two cities. A Laurel mailing address does not always mean the city of Laurel itself, so think of these as Route 1 stores serving the whole area, including commuters headed for Fort Meade or the B-W Parkway.
