SOUTH TOMS RIVER, NJ — After months of waiting, the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission has finally approved an adult recreational retail license in Ocean County.
The Social Leaf Dispensary in South Toms River received approval at the March 3 meeting of the commission, officials with the business said.
In preparation, they have been renovating the former Cap’n Hippo Bait and Tackle store on Route 166, and now they have scheduled a job fair for potential employees.
The job fair is from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday at South Toms River Borough Hall, and they will be accepting applications and scheduling interviews.
The Social Leaf is at 334-336 Atlantic City Blvd. in South Toms River, next door to Dicky’s Dogs and near Sundaes.
South Toms River Borough Hall is at 19 Double Trouble Road, just off Dover Road.
