Beehive Farmacy's Salt Lake City medical cannabis pharmacy license is no longer active, according to the state license roster updated Sept. 15. The deactivation is part of a broader wave: at least nine licenses across Utah—operated by Beehive Farmacy, Dragonfly Wellness, Bloc Pharmacy, Curaleaf, Zion Medicinal, and The Forest—lost active status the same day. Multiple locations, not isolated outlets, were affected.

The closures narrow Utah's medical cannabis retail footprint to six open locations statewide, down from a higher recent count. Beehive Farmacy itself retained one other active license (Brigham City) before that too deactivated on Sept. 15. The cause of the coordinated deactivations—whether voluntary surrender, regulatory action, or operational lapse—is not stated in available records.

Watch whether remaining Utah operators publish closure statements or filings explaining the Sept. 15 deactivations, and whether the state regulator comments on the scale of the de-licensing event.
