The Maine Office of Cannabis Policy, as part of an ongoing investigation, has issued a mandatory recall for select pre-ground adult use cannabis flower, pre-rolls, and blunts produced by Nova Farms. The reason for the recall is due to the presence of Microbials (aerobic bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae) and Yeast and Mold above the pass/fail threshold.
The products were sold at 14 adult use retail stores in Maine between September 17, 2024, and October 8, 2024. Click here for retailers.

From the OCP:
This recall is a result of routine compliance checks that allowed the Office to identify the audit testing irregularity and begin its investigation, including taking and testing samples from affected batches. The information contained in the State’s cannabis inventory tracking system allowed OCP to put an administrative hold on items throughout its investigation and ensure potentially contaminated cannabis was identified, isolated, and removed from store shelves. OCP’s investigation into the cause and scope of this contamination is ongoing.
