Diamond Tree has been licensed as a new manufacturing operator in Washington, according to the state license roster updated August 12. The addition comes as Washington's active manufacturing base stands at 1,009 licensed facilities.

The licensing occurs amid a wave of closures: at least a dozen operators—including The Green Shelf, Stickys, Fillabong, Evolve Cannabis, and Green Lady Hawks Prairie—had licenses marked inactive on the same date. The pattern suggests routine churn in the state's adult-use supply chain rather than a sector-wide shock.

Watch whether Diamond Tree's entry and the closure wave correlate with broader market consolidation or simply reflect seasonal licensing turnover in Washington's mature adult-use market.
