RIP N MARY FARMS, operated under license holder Tanya L. Rice, is no longer active in Montana, according to the state license roster. The deactivation was recorded September 9 and appears part of a broader wave: a dozen cannabis licenses—including cultivation, retail, manufacturing, and lab operations—were marked inactive in the same update.

Montana's adult-use market remains operational with 538 active retail locations and 302 cultivation facilities, per the latest roster snapshot. August sales data shows the state generated approximately $28.9 million in cannabis revenue. No pending applications are currently tracked, suggesting the roster is relatively stable outside the recent deactivations.

The reason for RIP N MARY FARMS' closure is not specified in available records. Watch whether additional closure filings surface in coming weeks and whether Montana's cultivation license count drops significantly in the next roster update—multiple single-operator farms among today's inactive licenses could signal market consolidation or regulatory enforcement action.
