About Wilmington

The cannabis scene

Wilmington is the small ski town at the base of Mount Snow and Haystack Mountain in southern Vermont's Deerfield Valley. With roughly 1,750 year-round residents, the town's population swells dramatically every ski season — and two CCB-licensed adult-use cannabis dispensaries serve both locals and visitors on Main Street.

Ratu's Cannabis Supply (36 W Main St) and Matterhorn Apothecary (7 N Main St) are both in downtown Wilmington — essentially a walkable two-shop strip. You can visit both in under 10 minutes on foot.

Vermont cannabis tax in Wilmington is 21% total: 14% cannabis excise tax, 6% Vermont state sales tax, and Wilmington's 1% local option tax (which the town has levied on sales since 2012). That is the same combined rate as Brattleboro and Burlington. Budget roughly $21 in tax per $100 of pre-tax menu price.

Getting around

From Mount Snow or Haystack Mountain: Take VT-100 South into Wilmington village (~8–10 minutes). Both dispensaries are on Main Street in the town center. Ratu's Cannabis Supply is at 36 W Main St; Matterhorn Apothecary is at 7 N Main St, a short walk east. Street parking and small lots are available in downtown Wilmington. From Brattleboro: Take VT-9 West approximately 32 miles (~45–50 minutes). Vermont Bud Barn in West Brattleboro (257 Marlboro Rd) is on Route 9 partway between Brattleboro and Wilmington — a useful stop for wider selection. From Bennington: Take VT-9 East approximately 22 miles (~30–35 minutes).

Wilmington dispensary FAQs

Local answers from operating in this market.

How many cannabis dispensaries are in Wilmington, Vermont?

Two CCB-licensed adult-use cannabis dispensaries operate in Wilmington as of mid-2026: Ratu's Cannabis Supply (36 W Main St; 802-464-1390; Mon–Thu 10:30–7, Fri–Sat 10:30–8, Sun 10:30–6) and Matterhorn Apothecary (7 N Main St; 802-464-7142; daily 10 AM–6 PM). Both are on Main Street and walkable from each other.

Can I bring cannabis to Mount Snow?

No. Mount Snow ski resort sits on Green Mountain National Forest land, which is federal property. Cannabis possession on federal land is a federal crime regardless of Vermont's adult-use law — the penalties are more severe than a state violation. Purchase from a Wilmington dispensary, store cannabis in your private lodging, and do not bring it onto the mountain, ski lifts, or resort common areas. This is different from Stowe/Killington, where the resorts sit on state or private land and Vermont law applies.

Which Wilmington dispensary is open latest?

Ratu's Cannabis Supply stays open until 8 PM on Fridays and Saturdays — the latest close in Wilmington. On Sunday through Thursday, Ratu's closes at 6 or 7 PM. Matterhorn Apothecary closes at 6 PM daily.

What is the cannabis tax in Wilmington, Vermont?

Vermont's cannabis tax in Wilmington is 21% total: a 14% cannabis excise tax, the 6% Vermont state sales tax, and Wilmington's 1% local option tax (the town has levied a 1% local option sales tax since 2012, and it applies to cannabis). That is the same combined rate as Brattleboro (21%) and Burlington (21%). Menu prices typically exclude tax — budget for about $21 per $100 pre-tax. Confirm at time of purchase.

Is there a dispensary closer to Mount Snow resort?

Both Wilmington dispensaries — Ratu's Cannabis Supply and Matterhorn Apothecary — are in downtown Wilmington, approximately 8–10 minutes south of Mount Snow via VT-100. There is no dispensary on the resort property itself; the closest licensed shops are these two in Wilmington village.
