Is Medical Marijuana Legal in Boise, ID?
Medical marijuana is not legal in Boise. If you are looking for Boise Marijuana Doctors, start with Idaho law: the state has no medical marijuana program, so no Boise physician can certify you for a card. Our Idaho medical marijuana card page explains why Idaho has no certification, registry or card, and what Idaho law allows today. Since July 1, 2025, an adult caught with 3 ounces or less faces a misdemeanor with a $300 minimum fine, and a card issued by another state does not change that in Idaho. On Nov 3, 2026, voters decide HJR 4, which would leave any legalization to the Idaho Legislature alone.
Boise voters use Ada County Elections, 400 N. Benjamin Lane, Ste 100, Boise, (208) 287-6860. Idaho lawmakers have voted on cannabis before: in 2015 they passed a limited cannabidiol oil bill, S 1146, and the Governor vetoed it.

Idaho law makes no exception for Boise patients today: Idaho Code 37-2705 places marijuana in Idaho’s schedule I of controlled substances, whatever the diagnosis, and a doctor’s note does not create one. Idaho’s definition of marijuana does exclude an FDA-approved cannabidiol drug with no more than 0.1% residual THC.
Under Idaho law, no diagnosis, including terminal cancer, PTSD, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, autism, chronic pain or anxiety, permits marijuana use. Idaho keeps no qualifying-condition list, and an adult with 3 ounces or less faces a misdemeanor and a $300 minimum fine.
Dr. Green Relief has no Boise office; its offices are in Florida and in Las Vegas, Nevada. No physician’s certification, in Idaho or elsewhere, makes marijuana legal in Idaho.
There is no Idaho program to enroll in and no Boise medical marijuana card to apply for. Idaho also has no caregiver registry, so a relative or friend who buys, carries or delivers marijuana for a Boise patient faces the same penalties under Idaho Code 37-2732 as anyone else.

Marijuana Card Program Status
Idaho has no medical marijuana program, and no physician certification protects a patient from Idaho possession law. Idaho Code 37-2705 keeps marijuana in Idaho’s schedule I of controlled substances, and the law makes no exception for patients or for cards issued by other states. Lawmakers adopted HJR 4 in March 2025 by votes of 58 to 10 in the House and 29 to 6 in the Senate, which put it on the Nov 3, 2026 ballot. The 2026 Idaho Medical Cannabis Act initiative, which would have had the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare issue cards, did not qualify for the ballot. The Idaho Secretary of State explains the HJR 4 ballot question at voteidaho.gov.

Marijuana Laws
Idaho does not issue a medical marijuana card, because the state has no medical marijuana program. HJR 4, on the Nov 3, 2026 ballot, would give only the Idaho Legislature the power to legalize marijuana.
Boise
Marijuana Dispensaries
Boise has no marijuana dispensaries, because Idaho law licenses none and makes every sale a crime. Selling or delivering marijuana is a felony punishable by up to 5 years in prison, a fine of up to $15,000, or both.
