Kim Leanne Hyde appeared before Magistrate Claire Girotto in Wellington Local Court on Friday after being arrested and charged on Thursday afternoon.
She faces charges of supply or knowingly take part in supply of prohibited drug, and participate in criminal group or contribute to criminal activity.
At the completion of her appearance on Friday Ms Hyde was released on bail, with the matter adjourned for further mention on August 16.
Ms Hyde’s arrest came 15 days after 12 people were taken into custody as a result of simultaneous raids in Dubbo and Wellington that broke up an alleged drug supply ring in the two locations.
“Police from Orana will not relent in the war against prohibited drugs and will continue to seek out those in the community that peddle these life destroying substances,” a post on the Orana Local Area Command official Facebook page said.
