Tumbleweed Sugar Co., LLC's license is no longer active in Vermont, according to state license records updated September 7. The deactivation marks the latest in a series of license terminations across the state; at least eleven other cannabis operators have ceased operations since late August, spanning retail, cultivation, and manufacturing.

Vermont's regulated cannabis market remains modest in scale, with 104 active retail licenses, 274 cultivation permits, and 84 manufacturing licenses as of the update. Monthly sales data shows the market holding steady at roughly $13 million in recent months, suggesting closures have not dramatically contracted overall demand—though individual operator exits may reflect competitive or operational pressures.

Watch whether this pace of deactivations continues or accelerates, and whether Vermont regulators issue guidance on the factors driving the wave of closures.
