Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket are idyllic vacation spots, green jewels set adrift in a blue ocean. Unfortunately, marijuana remains illegal on both islands despite state law allowing patients to use it medically.
Geoff Rose, an islander and founder of Patient-Centric is working to change that. He has applied for a license to cultivate and sell marijuana, though the process isn’t without its challenges.
Products
Island Time, the only locally owned and operated adult-use cannabis dispensary on Martha’s Vineyard, offers an unbeatable selection of top-quality products grown, tested, and produced right here on the Island for purchase seven days a week.
In 2012, Island voters authorized medical cannabis use on the Island. Since then, patient-centric owner Geoff Rose has worked to make safe and responsible marijuana use on Martha’s Vineyard a reality by developing cultivation, manufacturing, and testing facilities as well as two dispensaries. He strives to guarantee patients receive only top-quality products through these endeavors. He’s thrilled that Martha’s Vineyard can now benefit from this legal alternative medicine in an ethically used form. We appreciate your patience as we usher in this new era of healing – look forward to serving you soon! We’re located at Vineyard Haven on Mechanics Street!

Pricing
Since the recreational marijuana market opened in November 2018, dispensaries across the state have drastically cut prices on premium flowers. This has caused several smaller operators, including Worcester-based Major Bloom and Northampton’s The Source, to close their doors permanently.
Patient Centric, located in Vineyard Haven, is the first business on the Island to cater to both medical and adult-use customers. Furthermore, it’s vertically integrated, meaning they grow, test, and produce all their own cannabis products locally.
On Tuesday, hundreds of cannabis advocates gathered at West Tisbury Library to ask Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission members Kay Doyle and Britte McBride for assistance in circumventing federal laws that prevent transporting marijuana between Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. The commissioners agreed to meet with representatives from each island next month and review existing regulations as well as how best to regulate cannabis growing, and distribution on the islands, as well as medical marijuana production and consumption.
