TN HB2479

Adults 21 and older who register with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture may cultivate up to 15 marijuana plants (maximum 5 mature) at their private residence in a locked area not visible to the public, and possess up to 16 ounces of dried marijuana trim

Registration costs $100, is valid for 3 years, and covers all adults in the household; renters must obtain written permission from property owners

Registered adults may casually exchange marijuana trim without payment with other adults on private property, possess marijuana seeds and paraphernalia, but may not produce concentrates or oils

Minors must be restricted from cultivation and storage areas, and marijuana cannot be cultivated, used, or exchanged in the presence of minors

Beginning in 2027, 90% of surplus registration fees will fund a new farmers' market support program providing grants divided among Tennessee's three grand divisions
