Massachusetts-based Nova Farms is finalizing plans to expand into Thorndike in time for the 2021 growing season after securing approval Saturday. Thorndike residents voted 50-34 at a special town meeting to nix a proposed six-month moratorium on new marijuana businesses to provide time to create a local marijuana ordinance. The vote pushed forward the sale of Thorndike resident Donald Maxim’s 170-acre farm to Nova Farms, a commercial marijuana grower.
