Cannabis Social Club

A Cannabis Social Club is a concept of the paneuropean non-government organisation ENCOD made in 2005 to enable a legal way of production and distribution of Cannabis for adult persons. Cannabis Social Clubs are non-commercial organizations who organize the professional, collective cultivation of very limited amounts of cannabis, just enough to cover the personal needs of their club members.

Cultivation, transport, distribution and consumption would have to be submitted to security and quality checks, all this without publicity, shop signs or windows. The members finance this system by subscriptions according to their needs. Each member gets a value card with units, according to his credit with maximum limits for year and month. There would not be any dealing possible. The members are not allowed to sell any cannabis and must make sure that it isn’t consumed by minors.

In opposite to the Cannabis Buyers Club a CSC is not limited to medical-only use.

Cannabis Social Clubs exists in Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany.
