Danvers has one licensed cannabis shop on the Cannabis Control Commission's Where to Buy list, and it is a medical dispensary: Sanctuary Medicinals, at 2 Electronics Avenue. Danvers does not allow adult-use shops. If you live in Danvers, that shapes where you can buy and why a medical card matters. This guide lays out the shop, the town's rules as the Commission records them, the steps to a card, and the drive to Peabody.
| Shop (as the Commission lists it) | Address | Licence type on the list |
|---|---|---|
| Sanctuary Medicinals | 2 Electronics Ave, Ste 20, Danvers, MA 01923 | Medical |
The Commission marks this shop Medical only. To buy there you show a Massachusetts medical registration and a valid ID. The Commission does not date the list, so check the shop's status with the shop before you go.
The Commission's Municipal Zoning Tracker, read October 23, 2026, gives Danvers three entries: adult-use "Ban in place", delivery "Delivery permitted", and social consumption "No zoning in place". The Commission describes a ban as a municipality that has enacted zoning ordinances or bylaws prohibiting all types of Marijuana Establishments.
That ban is about adult-use establishments. A medical dispensary holds a different licence, which is how Sanctuary Medicinals is listed in a town with an adult-use ban. The tracker calls itself a general guide, so for the bylaw text itself, ask the Danvers town clerk.
With no adult-use shop in town, a registered card is the way to buy in Danvers. A short version of the path, for a Danvers resident:
Patients can be 18 or older. The full list of accepted documents, the renewal rules and how caregivers work are in the Massachusetts medical marijuana card guide, which cites the Commission's pages and the regulation line by line.
From Danvers Town Hall to 25 Newbury Street is about 6 miles and about 11 minutes by car in light traffic: Route 114 (Andover Street) to I-95 south, then the US 1 south exit toward Boston, and US 1 (Newbury Street) into Peabody. From Sanctuary Medicinals on Electronics Avenue it is about 5 miles and about 10 minutes. Route 1 and I-95 slow down at rush hour.
The two stores are a short drive apart, but they are different services. AC Peabody will serve registered medical patients and caregivers only.
Towns near Danvers on the Commission's list include Beverly, with Panacea Wellness at 13 Enon Street and Reverie 73 at 350-354 Rantoul Street (both adult-use), and Salem, covered in the Salem guide. Those towns allow adult-use shops; Danvers and Peabody do not.
Advanced Cultivators (AC) grows in Lowell, Massachusetts, under cultivation licence MC283314. Its own store, AC Peabody at 25 Newbury Street on US Route 1, is a short drive from Danvers. It is being renovated as a medical dispensary for registered patients and caregivers. No opening date has been announced; the patient list on the Peabody page hears first.
