A new women’s clothing boutique, Grace+Emma, is now open in Grapevine.

What they offer: The boutique sells tops, dresses, skirts, outerwear and more in standard and plus sizes, CEO and co-owner Adeel Mitha said. Grace+Emma also sells accessories and has seasonal collections, according to its website.

Adeel Mitha said the reason the boutique carries a variety of sizes is because of the brand’s goal to make sure every woman can find something for herself.

The backstory: Grace+Emma was started 12 years ago by Ashi Mitha and Rosie Jinnah, Adeel Mintha said, but the Grapevine area was always a place where they wanted to bring a physical storefront, the company’s first. 

Quote of note: “The big goal for us is to bring the community together,” Adeel Mitha said. “Grapevine has done so much for us growing up and nothing would make us happier than the citizens of Grapevine to love this place.”

Three medical cannabis businesses have been conditionally approved to participate in the Texas Compassionate Use Program, state officials announced April 1.

The big picture: The companies received conditional licenses from the Texas Department of Public Safety in an effort to expand access to medical cannabis products. Under the compassionate use program, physicians can prescribe medical-grade, low-THC products to eligible patients in partnership with licensed dispensaries.

Zooming in: Two of the three businesses given conditional licenses April 1 are affiliated with existing medical cannabis dispensaries that work in several other states. The new licensees are:

• GTI Texas, LLC (doing business as RISE Dispensaries) in West Texas

• Cresco Labs Texas, LLC in East Texas

• Texas Medica Collective, LLC in Northeast Texas

Conditional licensees must pass additional state evaluations before they can begin operating, according to the DPS.

More context: As Texas expands its medical cannabis program, the state is also tightening restrictions on the multibillion-dollar consumable hemp industry, Community Impact reported.
