Summary

The Freedom to Farm Act lets Tennessee adults 21 or older register with the Department of Agriculture to cultivate up to 15 marijuana plants (no more than five mature) in a locked, private area of their residence. Registrants may possess and use the harvested trim, exchange it casually on‑site, and buy seeds, but they cannot produce or possess resin, concentrates, or oils. The law requires a $100 registration fee, a three‑year term, and strict safeguards to keep minors out of cultivation areas.
