Two years of waiting for medical marijuana to be made available in North Dakota is almost over, and dispensaries are likely just months away from opening.
The state Department of Health has named two companies to manufacture medical marijuana in North Dakota and selected four businesses to open dispensaries in Fargo, Bismarck, Williston and Grand Forks. Former UND hockey and NHL player David Hale and business partner Jon O'Keefe will open the Grand Forks location under the name Strive Life.
"We're working with the state to open up as soon as possible," Hale said. "I think it is fair to say we are looking at a few months down the road."
