Middleton and Topsfield are both small towns with no cannabis shop of their own, and the state's tracker records an adult-use ban in each. The nearest licensed shop is in Danvers, about 4 miles from Middleton center, and it is a medical dispensary. If you came here asking where to buy near Middleton or Topsfield, the short route is to a medical card and a trip to Danvers, with Beverly the next stop for adult-use shoppers.
One medical shop and two adult-use shops are within a short drive of both towns, all on the Commission's list:
| Shop (as the Commission lists it) | Address | License type on the list |
|---|---|---|
| Sanctuary Medicinals | 2 Electronics Ave, Ste 20, Danvers, MA 01923 | Medical |
| Panacea Wellness | 13 Enon Street, Beverly, MA 01915 | Adult-use |
| Reverie 73 Beverly, LLC | 350-354 Rantoul Street, Beverly, MA 01915 | Adult-use |
Sanctuary Medicinals is the one to know about if you are, or want to become, a registered patient. By car it is about 4 miles and about 9 minutes from Middleton Town Hall and about 5 miles and about 10 minutes from Topsfield Town Hall. The Beverly shops are across Danvers, farther east. The list carries no date, so confirm a shop is open and what it serves before you go.
The Commission's Municipal Zoning Tracker reads adult-use "Ban in place" for Middleton. Its delivery entry is different from most towns: "Delivery banned DW-2026-009 Expiry: June 26, 2028". The tracker does not explain the code or the expiry date, and neither does this page. Social consumption reads "No zoning in place".
Topsfield reads adult-use "Ban in place", delivery "Delivery permitted" and social consumption "No zoning in place". Boxford, which touches both towns, shows the same ban. The tracker calls itself a general guide, so the Middleton and Topsfield town clerks are the source for bylaw text.
Middleton borders Peabody, which makes Advanced Dispensary at 25 Newbury Street the nearest of AC's plans to either town. From Middleton Town Hall on South Main Street the router gives about 7 miles and about 12 minutes by car in light traffic: Route 62 to Route 114, then US 1 south into Peabody.
From Topsfield Town Hall on West Common Street it is about 10 miles and about 17 minutes. You can stay on US 1 nearly the whole way, and part of it runs alongside I-95. US 1 is the main road for both and it slows at rush hour. Advanced Dispensary will serve registered medical patients and caregivers.
Boxford is folded into this guide because the facts for it are the same as for its neighbors: no shop of its own on the Commission's list and an adult-use "Ban in place" on the tracker, as read October 31, 2026. The Census Bureau estimated 8,334 residents in Boxford on July 1, 2024 (an estimate, not the 2020 count), and the town covers 23.6 square miles of land.
From Boxford Town Hall on Spofford Road to 25 Newbury Street the router gives about 16 miles and about 25 minutes by car in light traffic (checked October 31, 2026). Take Ipswich Road and Pond Street to Route 97, join I-95 south, then follow US 1 into Peabody, where it becomes Newbury Street. The nearest listed medical shop is Sanctuary Medicinals in Danvers. Rowley and Georgetown, to the east, have their own guides.
Here is what a resident of either town does, in the order the Commission asks for it:
You may register at 18 or older. The card guide explains renewals, caregivers and which documents count.
No. There is no Topsfield entry on the Commission's list.
The Commission lists Sanctuary Medicinals as Medical, a separate license from adult-use. Danvers has its own guide.
AC is a Lowell cultivator (license MC283314), and Middleton sits right next to Peabody, where it is renovating a medical dispensary at 25 Newbury Street on Route 1. The store will serve registered patients and caregivers only. No opening date has been announced. Middleton and Topsfield readers can join the patient list on the Peabody page.
Advanced Dispensary, 25 Newbury Street, Peabody, MA 01960. Phone: (978) 896-6640.
The shop list was retrieved on October 23, 2026 and the zoning tracker was read on October 30, 2026. The Commission publishes both without an updated date and tells readers to confirm details with the town.
Shop names, addresses and tracker entries are copied from public records for these towns. Nothing here ranks a shop, gives medical or legal advice, or claims a benefit from marijuana.
