Cannabis Laws in Tower

Cannabis possession and use rules in Tower are set by Minnesota state law, cities cannot override them. Adults 21 and older may purchase and possess up to 2 ounces of cannabis flower in public and up to 2 pounds at home. Consumption is permitted in private residences only: not in parks, sidewalks, vehicles, or multi-unit building common areas.

Minnesota's cannabis program is administered by the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM), and all dispensaries listed here hold active OCM retail licenses. The interim “moratorium” ordinances that many Minnesota cities adopted in 2023–24 expired by January 1, 2025, so cities can no longer ban cannabis businesses: but they may still apply local zoning (such as buffer zones near schools, parks, or daycares, or limits on the number and location of dispensaries). For current local rules, check with Tower city hall; local zoning affects where stores can open, not your possession rights as a consumer. See our Minnesota cannabis zoning rules by city for how these local rules compare across Minnesota cities.

Growing Cannabis at Home in Tower

Minnesota state law allows adults 21 and older to grow up to 8 cannabis plants at home, with a maximum of 4 mature (flowering) plants at any time. Plants must be grown in a locked, enclosed space not visible to the public: outdoor gardens visible from sidewalks or neighboring properties are not permitted.

Minnesota law protects home cultivation statewide (cities cannot prohibit it) so adults 21 and older in Tower may grow within the state limits above. Renters should still check their lease, since landlords can prohibit growing in rental units.

Shopping for Cannabis in Tower

Updated May 19, 2026

Tower's tribal dispensary carries a recreational menu of flower, edibles, vapes, pre-rolls, and concentrates for adults 21+. As a tribal dispensary, it does not charge Minnesota's 15% cannabis excise tax or 6.875% state sales tax.

Tower occupies a strategic position in northeastern Minnesota. It sits at the doorstep of Lake Vermilion, one of Minnesota's most spectacular lakes with more than 1,200 miles of shoreline and 365 islands. For those venturing further north toward the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness - accessible via Ely (30 miles west) or Crane Lake - Tower is the last practical cannabis stop before entering wilderness where no retail services exist.

The Bois Forte Band's Fortune Bay Resort Casino draws significant regional traffic that supports the dispensary year-round. Winter visitors come for snowmobiling through the Arrowhead trail system and ice fishing on Lake Vermilion's famous walleye grounds.
