Adults 21 and older can use recreational marijuana at home or on private property. You can’t use recreational marijuana in public places.
Public places are places to which the general public has access. This includes, but is not limited to: common areas in apartments and hotels; highways and streets; schools; parks and playgrounds; premises used for public passenger transportation (such as bus stops); and amusement parks.
A good rule of thumb: If someone outside of your home can see you, you’re probably in public.
Bars and restaurants
OLCC rules prohibit any marijuana consumption at a premise with a liquor license. Allowing marijuana use may put an establishment’s liquor license in jeopardy. In addition, smoking and vaping in most businesses is limited by the Indoor Clean Air Act.
Landlord-owned residences
Landlords possess the right to restrict the use and growth of marijuana on their property. Check with your landlord regarding their rules about using marijuana, growing marijuana, or making goods containing marijuana in their home or property.
