All Day
Hemp History Week
The 5th Annual Hemp History Week: June 2-8, 2014
It’s Time to Grow
Every day, more and more Americans discover the benefits of hemp. This ever-expanding market includes healthy food and body care products, as well as eco-friendly textiles, clothing, auto parts, and building materials. But despite hemp’s growing popularity, an outdated and misguided Federal policy – created in the 1930s – currently prevents U.S. farmers from growing this nutritious, versatile, and eco-friendly crop.

They confront frustrating realities while discovering their place in the world, and the results are at once chaotic, enlightening, and unforgettable.
