About

Aotearoa's home of weed.

weed.nz has been covering cannabis in New Zealand since 2014 — the culture, the news, the science, the law and the good times. We're an independent, proudly Kiwi home for everything weed: the plant, the people, and the stories worth telling.

What we're about

Good weed, good people, good reads. We dig into how cannabis actually works, where New Zealand law is heading, and the culture that grows up around the plant — without the hype, the moralising or the stoner clichés. Our archive of 83 articlesspans a decade of NZ weed writing, and there's plenty more coming.

What's next

weed.nz is growing into a full culture brand — merch, stickers and a shop are on the way. The same voice, the same community, more ways to fly the flag. Want first dibs? Get on the drop.

Keeping it real

  • Honest about NZ law and the evidence.
  • Harm reduction over moralising.
  • Plain language, no marketing spin.
  • Strictly 18+. For information & entertainment — not medical advice. We do not sell cannabis.

How we make money

weed.nz is independent. We don't sell cannabis, run product ads, or take payment to rank or recommend any clinic, brand or retailer. Where we mention clinics or products, it's for information only — our comparisons (like our clinic comparison) are factual and neutral, with no ratings, testimonials or pay-for-placement. We may add clearly-labelled affiliate links for legal-to-own gear (such as vaporizers) in future; we will always disclose them and they never influence our editorial position.

How we review and correct

Our law, medical, science and safer-use pages carry a visible “last reviewed”date and cite primary sources — the Misuse of Drugs Act 1975, the Medicinal Cannabis Agency (Ministry of Health), Pharmac, NZ Police, Waka Kotahi NZTA and Massey's NZ Drug Trends survey, among others. New Zealand's cannabis-law landscape changes, so we re-check time-sensitive pages and date every claim. Spotted an error? Email hello@weed.nzand we'll fix and re-date it.
