NORWOOD, Mass., Oct. 14, 2024 – PRESS RELEASE – MariMed Inc., a leading multistate cannabis operator, announced it commenced operations at its new cultivation facility in Mt. Vernon, Ill. The first harvest is expected in early 2025, at which time the company will sell its award-winning Nature’s Heritage flower and concentrates through its retail and wholesale channels throughout the state.

“We are thrilled to commence cultivation operations at our new Mt. Vernon facility,” MariMed CEO Jon Levine said. “Illinois is a fantastic adult-use market and adding flower production is a critical step in our strategy to meet increasing user demand. This expansion strengthens our position in Illinois and furthers our mission of delivering high-quality cannabis products to our customers.”

In addition to cultivation, MariMed’s Mt. Vernon facility houses a state-of-the-art processing kitchen, which began producing a wide range of cannabis-infused products last December.

The company also operates five Thrive dispensaries in Anna, Casey, Harrisburg, Metropolis and Mt. Vernon. They offer a curated selection of products across its award-winning brand portfolio, including Betty’s Eddies fruit chews, Bubby’s Baked soft-baked goods, Vibations hydrating drink mixes, the full suite of its InHouse branded products, and coming soon, Nature’s Heritage flower and concentrates.
