Union Fight Erupts At Missouri Cannabis Dispensary After 12 Workers Fired

Madison Taylor has spent the past eight days picketing outside her former workplace, Greenlight Dispensary in Springfield.

Two weeks ago, Taylor says she and a group of coworkers met outside of work to discuss forming a union. Days later, 12 employees who attended the meeting were fired, she said, after management accused them of consuming marijuana at work. 

The workers contend the firings were retaliation for their union activity.

“My hope, at this moment, is to just continue speaking up for my coworkers’ rights, the industry workers as a whole, and making sure that our community continues to be aware of the predatory practices of this business,” Taylor told The Independent.  

The firings came just one day before employees at another Greenlight dispensary, this one in Joplin, voted to 18-2 to unionize.

Both the Springfield and Joplin locations came under new management of “an entity affiliated with Good Day Farm” in March 2025, a Greenlight representative said in a statement to The Independent.
