Understanding how coffeeshops work is essential, even if Lemelerveld does not yet have one. A coffeeshop functions as a licensed coffeeshop that cultivates weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles exclusively for its registered members, with no external sales permitted. Under Netherlands law, each cannabis café is non-profit, limited to a number determined by the municipal license members, and subject to periodic compliance inspections. Individuals must be at least 18 years old to join, and dual membership in multiple clubs is typically prohibited. Dispensing limits are set at five grams per purchase daily and no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid monthly per member. All locations must be at least set by municipality (typically 250m from schools) from schools, a rule that influences where clubs can practically open. Since smoking inside the coffeeshop is permitted — no alcohol served, only cannabis products and soft drinks, members take products home for personal use. Separately, individuals may personal cultivation five plants (tolerated, not legalised) at home, complementing club access with personal cultivation.

The daily limit is five grams per purchase and the monthly cap is no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid — these are not guidelines but legally binding maximums enforced by every registered coffeeshop.
