Understanding how cannabis membership clubs work is essential, even if Barrio Abreu does not yet have one. A cannabis membership club functions as a non-profit civil association (asociación civil sin fines de lucro) that cultivates cannabis flower strictly for its registered members, with no external sales permitted. Under Uruguay law, each cannabis membership club is non-profit, limited to 15 to 45 members per club 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 40 grams per month (no daily cap) daily and 40 grams per month monthly per member. The 150 meters from schools and 1,000 meters between club facilities distance requirement from educational institutions ensures community safety and responsible placement of facilities. Clubs are cultivation and distribution points — not consumption lounges, meaning members collect their supply and consume it at home or in private spaces. Private autocultivo of up to six plants per household, maximum 480g harvest per year is also permitted alongside club membership for those who prefer self-sufficiency.
