YOU, YES YOU

ALL South Africans are affected by Cannabis prohibition, directly or indirectly. Ongoing prohibition of Cannabis relies on funding from Civil Society, diverting valuable resources away from addressing the very real struggles of our nation - joblessness, poverty, systemic violence, and unjust laws. We intend to create and participate in a legal Cannabis Sector that is for South Africans by South Africans, regardless of their relationship with the Plant.

“We will not stop until we achieve Fields of Green for ALL for ALL South Africans so that we may be an example for the rest of Africa and ALL citizens of the world. We owe it to this plant that has been so good to us in so many ways.” – Myrtle Clarke, August 2021
