Editorial Policy & Standards
How MN Cannabis Hub sources, verifies, and maintains the accuracy of cannabis information for Minnesota consumers, growers, and business owners.
Our Commitment
Cannabis is a YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) topic — the information we publish can directly affect people's health, legal standing, and financial decisions. We take this responsibility seriously. Every piece of content on MN Cannabis Hub is held to editorial standards designed to protect our readers and maintain trust.
Editorial Principles
Accuracy First
Every legal, medical, and regulatory claim on this site is verified against primary sources — Minnesota statutes, OCM guidance, and tribal compact documents. We do not reprint unverified claims.
Primary Sources
We cite the Minnesota Office of Cannabis Management (mn.gov/ocm), Minnesota Statutes Chapter 342, and the Minnesota Department of Health. Tribal dispensary information is verified directly with tribal authorities.
Regular Updates
Cannabis law in Minnesota changes frequently. Key pages (legal, medical, licensing) are reviewed at minimum once per legislative session. "Last Updated" dates are displayed on time-sensitive content.
Editorial Independence
Dispensary rankings and reviews are based on verified data (ratings, reviews, location) — not advertising. We accept affiliate partnerships for growing equipment and seed banks, which are clearly disclosed per FTC guidelines.
Responsible Content
Cannabis is a federally controlled substance. We include safety warnings, dosage guidance, and responsible use disclaimers where appropriate. Content involving medical cannabis is not medical advice.
Corrections & Feedback
If you find something incorrect on our site, we want to know. Every city page has a feedback CTA, and corrections are published promptly. We take accuracy seriously — especially for legal and medical content.
