New Jersey's busiest medical marijuana dispensary appears to be ready to get even busier.
Curaleaf, formerly known as Compassionate Sciences, opened a new retail location across the street from its existing location in Bellmawr last month and has entered the planning stage for a 100,000-square-foot, indoor growing facility on a remediated landfill here near an intersection of interstates 295 and 76, company and borough officials said. The new facility would be about the size of two football fields.
"We're reviewing environmental design for potentially the largest greenhouse on the East Coast," George Schidlovsky, president of Curaleaf New Jersey said Friday. "We are working in lockstep with the governor's office, the Department of Health, the Legislature and municipality to provide the largest variety of cannabis products and the largest selection in the state."
