Fine Fettle has converted all nine of its cannabis dispensaries across Connecticut into hybrid locations, expanding access for registered medical marijuana patients while continuing to serve adult-use customers. The change follows new state laws allowing recreational dispensaries to sell to patients enrolled in the Connecticut Medical Marijuana Program.

Under the hybrid model, Fine Fettle locations support patient health needs while improving access statewide, strengthening Connecticut’s medical cannabis program in areas where options have been limited.

“This change allows us to continue fulfilling our mission of accessible, compassionate care while strengthening the state's medical program,” said Benjamin Zachs, COO of Fine Fettle. “By bringing all of our locations under a hybrid model, we can serve patients and customers alike—without sacrificing the quality, expertise, and personal touch that define Fine Fettle. In many regions where we operate, there have not been options for medical patients to increase access. We're changing that.”

Hybrid services are now available at Fine Fettle dispensaries in Manchester, Norwalk, Old Saybrook, Waterbury, and West Hartford. Each site offers in-person and remote consultations with licensed pharmacists, a feature of Connecticut’s medical marijuana system that supports patient safety, education, and appropriate care.

“This is about efficiency and equity,” Zachs said. “Patients shouldn't have to travel far for care or be stuck with limited options. With this model, we can responsibly serve both patients and customers while keeping Connecticut's medical community strong.”
