Hemp – Hemp – Hooray!

As a commercial crop, Hemp requires no pesticides to grow, improves soil structure, and is more efficient and sustainable than conventional forestry. Hemp is widely considered the ‘perfect renewable resource’, as it can be grown throughout the world (to maturity in under 100 days), all year round.

The healing and pain-relieving powers of Hemp are legendary. Claimed by many to be a ‘superfood’, Hemp superfood’ seeds provide an excellent source of protein and beneficial fatty acids (Omega-3, 6 and 9). Hempseed oil is renowned for its moisturizing and rejuvenating qualities and is used in fine cosmetics and soaps, as well as many skin, hair and body products. In short, the diverse uses and beneficial qualities of Hemp are unsurpassed in the plant kingdom.

Industrial Hemp offers a promising alternative to petrochemical-based plastics, creative and environmentally friendly building materials, Hemp hurds (for cleaning and absorbing industrial waste, effluent and oil spills), a cheap source of diesel fuel and a low-cost/high-yield product well suited for developing nations to create and maintain a stable economy.
