Kalamazoo has 19 dispensaries licensed by the Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA). Adults 21 and older with a valid government photo ID can buy, including visitors and Western Michigan University students who are old enough. None of Kalamazoo's stores hold a medical license, so every shop here is adult-use. Two stores, The Refinery and Urban Gardens, open at 8 a.m., and seven stay open until 10 p.m.
Kalamazoo sits on I-94 halfway between Detroit and Chicago. Rather than one cluster, the shops ring the city: West Michigan Avenue and Stadium Drive near the WMU campus, Portage Street and Cork Street on the south and east sides, and Gull Road and Sprinkle Road on the east side.

Visiting a Dispensary in Kalamazoo: ID, Payment and Hours

Kalamazoo and Michigan Cannabis Laws: Purchase Limits, Public Use and Driving
Adults 21 and older can buy up to 2.5 ounces per transaction, with no more than 15 grams of concentrate, carry 2.5 ounces, keep 10 ounces at home and grow 12 plants per residence. Our Michigan marijuana laws guide covers the rest.
- Campus: Western Michigan University treats cannabis possession on campus as a policy violation because it receives federal funds, even for students 21 and older.
- Public use: Using cannabis in parks, on the Kalamazoo Mall or on streets is not protected. Use it on private property where the owner allows it.
- Driving: Driving while impaired by marijuana is a crime. If you bought on an I-94 stop, keep the package sealed, and do not carry it into Indiana, where it is illegal.
Cannabis Taxes in Kalamazoo
Shoppers pay Michigan's 10% adult-use excise tax and the 6% state sales tax. Michigan has no local sales taxes, and we found no separate Kalamazoo cannabis tax. The 24% wholesale marijuana tax that started January 1, 2026 is paid by businesses before the product reaches the shelf, so it is part of the price, not a receipt line. See our 2026 cannabis prices by state.
Medical Marijuana in Kalamazoo
No Kalamazoo store in our directory holds a medical license. Registered patients 21 and older can shop as adult-use customers; patients aged 18 to 20 need a medical store in another city, such as Battle Creek.
