FAQ
A social club in South Africa, specifically a Cannabis Social Club (CSC), is a private community where members can grow, consume and share cannabis in a legal and safe environment. These clubs operate on the basis of South African cannabis laws, which authorise the private use and cultivation of cannabis.
Cannabis social clubs are usually non-profit organisations that facilitate the collective cultivation of cannabis for the personal use of their members. They operate under strict rules to ensure that cannabis is grown exclusively by and for members, with no commercial sale or distribution to non-members. Members pay a fee to support the cultivation, maintenance and operation of the club.
The focus is on quality, safety and the promotion of a responsible cannabis culture. The clubs often offer educational programmes, workshops and events to impart knowledge about cannabis, its use and the associated laws.
