Colorado became the first state in the nation to legalize recreational cannabis back in 2012. Eight years later, during a historic pandemic that has confined much of the public to their homes, Colorado is on schedule to be the last state to allow for widespread legal marijuana delivery.

This comes even as we rely on mail order or delivery for prescription medications, groceries or other essentials.

Part of the state’s marijuana delivery into law, which Gov. Polis signed in 2019, went into effect at the start of the year. It allows for medical marijuana delivery, but only if individual municipalities opt into the law.

Almost halfway through 2020, the cities of Boulder and Superior are the only two on board.

The state’s only two marijuana businesses permitted to deliver to registered medical marijuana patients both happen to be in Boulder: a location of the state-wide chain Native Roots, and Helping Hands Herbals.
