It has been a while since I last grew hemp. Though I advise many other companies, work with hemp farmers, processors, manufacturers, distributors and more - growing hemp personally has not been a focus.
This year is different. Focussing on empowering others to take their own sustainability into their hands, rather than the big multi-nationals is my focus. I started "How To Start A Hemp Business" as a consultancy business which soon led me to realising that to truly walk my talk I better be growing hemp locally. So, that is what this blog is about - to document my progress of this crop for you!
Why grow hemp? As well as a demonstration crop it will have a use - to supply hemp seeds to Hemp Foods Australia who are Australia's largest supplier of organic hulled hemp seed, hemp oil and hemp protein.
Where to grow hemp? This crop is being grown in Byron Bay at Australia's first and only open to the public display farm. Here you will be able to learn about all aspects of growing and processing hemp - everything from the seed to the end product. I won't go into all the offerings of the hemp farm, as you may do this by visiting www.hempfarm.com.au. Right now we are completing the building...
How to grow hemp - well, that is the point of this blog. All of the facts, figures and pre-planning have already been taken into consideration using all the data I offer in the book "Growing Hemp For Profit" (highly recommended reading if you are considering growing yourself).
Next post will share our first steps to date...
