An employee of The Medicine Woman dispensary confirmed the closing of the Jersey City location but did not say when it closed or give a reason.
The marijuana dispensary officially opened on April 19, 2025. Ice-T, whose real name is Tracy Lauren Marrow, was at the grand opening with co-owner and founder Charis Burrett.
The flagship location for The Medicine Woman in Bellflower, California, is still open, the company's website says. The California store has been in operation since 2019.
Jersey City public officials could not be reached for an immediate comment on the dispensary's closing.
Burrett, who has said she was also involved with the cannabis reform organization Last Prisoner Project, had high hopes for the Jersey City location when it opened.
