About South Burlington

The cannabis scene

South Burlington sits directly south and east of Burlington proper, hugging Shelburne Road (US-7) and Williston Road (US-2). It's the Chittenden County retail corridor — every chain you'd expect along the strip — and that's true for cannabis as well, with shops in nearby Williston and Essex Junction serving South Burlington residents and commuters from I-89.

There are no dispensaries within South Burlington's incorporated boundaries listed on the current Vermont CCB licensee roster (April 2026). The nearest options are 5–10 minutes by car: Burlington proper to the north, Winooski to the northeast, Essex Junction to the east.

Getting around

South Burlington is car-dependent for cross-town movement. I-89 exits 13, 14, and 14W all touch the city. Free parking is the norm at strip-mall locations. Green Mountain Transit's #1 (Williston Road) and #6 (Shelburne Road) routes connect South Burlington to downtown Burlington and to Essex Junction.

South Burlington dispensary FAQs

Local answers from operating in this market.

Are there any cannabis dispensaries in South Burlington, Vermont?

No CCB-licensed retail dispensary currently operates within South Burlington's city limits (as of the April 2026 licensee list). Burlington proper, Winooski, and Essex Junction shops are 5–10 minutes away by car.

What is the closest dispensary to South Burlington?

Depends on where in South Burlington you are. From the Williston Road corridor: Magic Mann or The High Bar in Essex Junction (10 min east). From the Shelburne Road corridor: any downtown Burlington shop (5 min north). From the airport: Float On or Lucky You downtown.

Can a South Burlington dispensary open in the future?

Yes. South Burlington has not opted out of adult-use retail at the municipal level, so new licensees could open here pending CCB approval and local zoning. We monitor the CCB licensee list weekly and will add new South Burlington shops as they appear.
