Is marijuana illegal in Pennsylvania? Unfortunately, yes. Depending on which county you are in, you are basically going to face some sort of penalty in every county in Pennsylvania. Whether it is fines, potential probation, and even jail time under certain statutes. In being caught with any associated paraphernalia as well is illegal in Pennsylvania.
