Medical marijuana will be legal in Kentucky starting Jan. 1, 2025. Each individual city is responsible for creating the zoning regulations to either allow or ban medical marijuana businesses from opening.

As Kentucky heads towards legalization of medical marijuana in 2025, the U.S. Drug and Enforcement Agency (DEA) is debating rescheduling marijuana as a less dangerous substance.
