Fairfax, Virginia Cannabis Guide: Legal Status, Where to Buy & Neighborhoods
A courthouse town turned commuter hub, right at the center of Northern Virginia's HSA II region.
Quick answer · Fairfax, Virginia
Fairfax adults 21+ can carry up to two ounces. Jushi Holdings' Beyond Hello runs a medical dispensary right in the city at 10521 Fairfax Boulevard. There's no adult-use dispensary anywhere yet - statewide retail opens July 2027 - and no cannabis delivery beyond a patient hand-off.
Fairfax Market Overview
Fairfax is a small independent city - just over six square miles - that happens to sit at the geographic and judicial center of Northern Virginia, with the county courthouse bearing its name a few blocks from George Mason University's main campus. That combination of government workers, students, and commuters gives the city a denser daily population than its size suggests.
Beyond/Hello, operated by Jushi Holdings, holds the HSA II license covering all of Northern Virginia, patients here included. A written certification and photo ID get a registered patient through the door; nothing arrives unannounced, only a hand-off if the processor arranges one. Beyond Hello runs a storefront right here at 10521 Fairfax Boulevard, so a Fairfax patient never has to leave the city to pick up an order.
A couple of Old Town Fairfax storefronts and a Route 50 shop near GMU both stock hemp drinks and gummies dosed at the state's 2-milligram ceiling. The city hasn't said anything publicly about adult-use zoning, and given the federal-adjacent workforce common in Northern Virginia, demand may stay cautious even after 2027. George Mason's roughly 40,000 students add a large seasonal population that leans heavily on that same hemp shelf, since university housing policy bans cannabis outright regardless of the statewide 2-ounce possession limit.
Delivery in Fairfax
Beyond/Hello can bring product to a registered patient with an ID check at the door, but there's no unattended drop-off, and nothing at all for the general public until adult-use retail exists.

Top Brands in Fairfax
Beyond/Hello, the Jushi Holdings brand covering all of Northern Virginia's HSA II, is the only medical option here - its house flower, vape, and edible line is what a Fairfax patient actually buys. In Old Town's hemp shops, check any can for the 2mg cap before buying.
Pricing in Fairfax
Jushi's HSA II pricing sits at the top of the state's medical range - figure $45-$65 for an eighth. Old Town's hemp shops charge $5-$9 a can, driven by the same regional cost pressure.

Fairfax FAQ
Is there a dispensary in Fairfax?
Yes - Beyond Hello operates at 10521 Fairfax Boulevard for registered HSA II patients.
Can GMU students possess cannabis off campus?
Off campus, sure - two ounces at 21 is fine under state law. Mason's conduct code still treats any cannabis in university housing as a violation.
Are hemp drinks in Old Town legit?
Yes, sold to buyers 21 and up, each package dosed at just 2 milligrams.
When does adult-use retail open here?
Not before the statewide July 2027 launch date.
How much can I legally carry in Fairfax?
Two ounces covers legal possession at 21+. Between 2 and 4 ounces is a civil matter carrying a $25 fine; more than that becomes criminal.
Which Beyond Hello location is closest to Old Town Fairfax?
The Fairfax Boulevard store itself, a few minutes northeast of the Old Town grid.
Which part of Fairfax has the most hemp retail?
Old Town and the Route 50 corridor near GMU both carry a shop or two.
Do Fairfax's many county borders complicate cannabis access?
Not legally - state law applies uniformly, though retail availability varies by whichever corridor a resident is closer to.

Cannabis Prices in Fairfax
Virginia pricing applies in Fairfax. Expect local variation based on competition and area type:
There is no adult-use price data yet since retail does not open until July 2027; the HB 30 tax structure (6% state excise, up to 3.5% local) points toward some of the lowest total tax rates on the East Coast once sales start. Medical dispensary flower has generally run $40-$60 per eighth depending on region and processor, with vapes and concentrates priced comparably to other East Coast medical markets. Hemp-derived THC drinks and gummies capped at 2mg per package run $3-$8 per unit at gas stations and smoke shops - cheap per item, but the low milligram cap means you are paying more per milligram of THC than a regulated market would charge.
