Who We Are

Australia’s longest running cannabis community.

OZ Stoners started in 1999 on Yahoo Geocities, when the internet was young and cannabis communities had nowhere to call home. What began as a small corner of the web became the longest running cannabis forum in Australia.

Over 25 years we’ve seen Australia’s cannabis landscape change completely. From underground subculture to mainstream conversation, from Geocities to a fully hosted platform, OZ Stoners has been here through all of it, providing a space for honest, informed, community-driven discussion.

We’re not a business. We’re not a brand. We’re a community built by Australian cannabis enthusiasts, for Australian cannabis enthusiasts. Est. 1999. Still here. Still rolling.

The OZ Stoners story

“We were doing this before there was an industry to speak of. A community that took cannabis seriously.”

From Geocities to today, from subculture to mainstream. OZ Stoners has navigated every shift in Australia’s cannabis landscape while keeping the community at the centre of everything.

History

25 years of Australian cannabis community.

From Geocities to the longest running cannabis forum in Australia.

Origins

Born on Yahoo Geocities

OZ Stoners launches on Yahoo Geocities during the early days of the web, one of the first dedicated online spaces for Australian cannabis enthusiasts at a time when the internet itself was still finding its feet.

2000s
Growth

Building the community

The forum grows through the decade, developing into Australia’s most comprehensive cannabis community resource. Cultivation guides, strain discussions, community knowledge, law and politics. The forum builds a resource that serves tens of thousands of Australians.

2010s
Advocacy

Reform and recognition

As cannabis reform gains momentum across Australia, OZ Stoners becomes a trusted voice in the conversation. The community covers legislative changes, medical cannabis developments, and advocacy work, tracking Australia’s shifting relationship with cannabis in real time.

2022
Rebirth

The hiatus and the phoenix

OZ Stoners enters an unplanned 12-month hiatus. Rather than the end, it becomes an opportunity for a comprehensive rebuild,, server upgrades, and platform overhaul. The community returns stronger. Fully hosted, rebuilt from the ground up, with a renewed commitment to the people who built it.
