About Norwich
The cannabis scene
Norwich is a small Vermont town of about 3,900 people in Windsor County, situated along the Connecticut River directly across from Hanover, New Hampshire — home of Dartmouth College. The Ledyard Bridge connects the two towns; Norwich and Hanover share a school district and a tight physical community despite the state line running through the river.
Norwich has no CCB-licensed adult-use cannabis dispensary. The three nearest licensed shops are all in White River Junction, about 5 miles south: The Tea House, Five Seasons Cannabis Co., and The Hidden Grove, all on the Hartford side of WRJ. New Hampshire does not have recreational cannabis retail as of mid-2026, making Vermont — and specifically White River Junction — the nearest legal source for Dartmouth students, faculty, visitors, and Hanover-area residents who choose to use cannabis legally.
