On the “News” page, you can find what has been going on with us. We also try to provide updates, links & reminders to various topics. You can find the contributions from 2022 here.
In these days our members receive the current number 98 of our magazine Legalize it! with the new Shit happens 15.

On Saturday, June 3, the Hemparade will take place at the Kulturfabrik Wetzikon.
Starting at 2 p.m., visitors can discover many things about hemp and its use: stalls with hemp products, a dab bar, glassblowers and presentations about hemp (e.g. also the one by Sven of the Association Legalize it!).
In addition, there will be food & drinks, accompanied by music as well as outdoor seating – and the best:
Admission is free!
We are already looking forward to an unforgettable day around the topic of hemp!
And already the CannaTrade is over again… We hope you were able to visit this year's fair – the official aftervideo is available on youtube.
The weather didn't really invite you to stay outside, but the lectures and panels were a good opportunity to find out what's going on in Switzerland at the moment – or unfortunately not yet… The videos will soon be available on the youtube channel of CannaTrade.
It was three days full of impressions and encounters – many thanks especially to Sonia and Sven for their commitment on stage!
Happy 420! In three weeks the legendary Swiss hemp fair CannaTrade will begin!
From May 12 to 14 we will once again have the opportunity to explore and experience pretty much everything that has to do with hemp.
The fair will take place again this year (as in 2018 and 2019) in Hall 622 right next to the Zurich-Oerlikon train station - so it is extremely easy to reach by public transport.
In addition to the numerous booths of exhibitors from all over the world, there will again be a generous chill-out area under the open sky with a great culinary offer. In addition, a rich supporting program will take place again this year, covering many interests. At this point, the Joint Roll Contest and the CannaSwissCup should be mentioned – these are just two of many events, including lectures and panel discussions.
For example, Sven from the Association Legalize it! will first give a lecture on «THC&Law» on Saturday afternoon and then participate in a Discussion group.
Afterwards Sonia will present the project “Legalize it!
Social Club”(Hanfstübli) and take part in a Q&A session.
We are already looking forward to three unforgettable days around the topic of hemp!

We wish you all nice spring days!
