Why This Is Separate

LearnShrooms is being shaped as a USA-first resource for people trying to understand legal access, service centers, facilitators, products, cultivation education, and changing state law. International retreats and non-US legal models can be useful context, but they should not blur the path for someone trying to find real options in the United States.

What Belongs Here

  • International retreat models, including the Netherlands, Jamaica, Brazil, Mexico, and other jurisdictions.
  • Non-US law summaries and research programs that help readers compare policy models.
  • Travel considerations, screening questions, and harm-reduction guidance for people researching international access.

Verification Standard

International listings need the same treatment as US listings: active public website, clear contact path, current proof of operation, safety information, and a visible source trail. If a listing cannot be verified, it should stay out of the main directory until it becomes useful to visitors.
