About Tempelhof Growers Club
Tempelhof occupies a singular place in Berlin’s geography — most famous for the vast Tempelhof Field, the former airport turned public park that is one of the largest inner-city open spaces in the world. The Tempelhof Growers Club takes its identity partly from this landscape: a club rooted in the open, community-oriented spirit of a district that converted a Nazi-era airport into a public commons.
The club has a notably practical orientation. While other Berlin CSCs emphasise political advocacy or countercultural identity, Tempelhof Growers is focused primarily on the craft of cannabis cultivation. Members with growing experience are encouraged to share knowledge, and the club maintains detailed records of cultivation techniques, strain performance, and quality outcomes.
Tempelhof as a district is quieter and more residential than inner Berlin neighbourhoods. It attracts long-term Berlin residents, working-class communities, and an increasing number of young families priced out of more central areas. The Growers Club reflects this diversity — united primarily by genuine interest in cultivation and community.
At €8 per month, Tempelhof Growers Club offers one of the most accessible membership rates among Berlin CSCs. This is a deliberate policy reflecting the club’s belief that the benefits of the new legal framework should be broadly accessible, not concentrated among higher-income Berliners.
Understanding German Cannabis Law for Visitors
Germany’s cannabis reform came in two stages. The Konsumcannabisgesetz (KCanG), effective 1 April 2024, legalised personal possession for adults 18+: up to 25g in public, 50g at home, and 3 plants. The Cannabisanbaugesetz (CanG), effective 1 July 2024, created the legal framework for non-commercial Cannabis Social Clubs.
For international visitors, this means there is currently no legal way to purchase cannabis in Germany. There are no licensed retail dispensaries. Cannabis tourists who arrive expecting an Amsterdam-style experience will not find it. What does exist is a growing civil-society network of CSCs, primarily accessible to German residents, pioneering a genuinely non-commercial, community-centred cannabis culture.

For International Travellers
If you are visiting Berlin and interested in cannabis culture, personal possession of up to 25g is legal for adults 18+. However, purchasing cannabis remains illegal as there are no retail shops. Cannabis Social Clubs are not accessible to tourists. Consume only in private and be aware that public consumption is restricted near schools, playgrounds, and pedestrian zones.
