Rise Medical Marijuana Dispensary Opens its Doors in Meadville

Crawford County's first medical marijuana dispensary opened its doors Wednesday in Meadville. 

Rise Meadville, located at 18914 Park Avenue Plaza, opened Wednesday morning at 9 a.m. 

The facility features the company's only drive-through in the state of Pennsylvania. 

Meadville residents say the new dispensary has been a long time coming. Prior to Wednesday, patients would have to travel to Rise locations in Hermitage or Erie. 

First day proceeds will be given to Women's Services, Inc., a Crawford County nonprofit that works to help victims of domestic and sexual violence. 

Rise Meadville is open 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays.
