The facts and figures about hemp all tell the same tale. There is no downside to industrial hemp cultivation yet it remains irrationally classified as a controlled substance. Humans and our planet will continue to suffer needlessly as long as industrial hemp cultivation remains heavily regulated and restricted.
I founded Indie Hemp to help set the record straight and reveal the harmless truth about hemp. Hemp is not recreational and it is not a drug. Hemp is an agricultural crop that contains less than 0.3% THC and has been grown for seeds and fiber for thousands of years.
If you want to take a deeper look into the 25,000 different uses for hemp, come join us at Indie Hemp on Facebook. If you don’t have time for all 25,000 uses, don’t worry! Here are my top 3 picks for what you need to know about hemp, veterans, opioids and addiction.
Our veterans deserve whatever support we as a nation and a people can offer them. That support can and should include legal and safe access to hemp derived medicines, along with substantial opportunities to cultivate, process, and distribute hemp related products commercially.
Hemp has helped our nation in the past, and in this regard, I hope we will let history repeat itself. Veterans represent a massive group of individuals who can benefit greatly from expanded hemp cultivation in the US. Hemp’s versatility led to a massive campaign by the USDA (United States Depart of Agriculture) during World War II, called Hemp for Victory, which encouraged US farmers to plant as much hemp as possible. According to several sources, farmers cultivated as many as 150,000-400,000 acres of hemp on US soil during this campaign.
And today, we would be hard pressed to find fewer than 100 different veteran’s groups who support and endorse everything about hemp for veterans, from the cultivation side all the way to the point of use, yet it remains illegal in the eyes of the federal government.
So, why are there so many veterans and veteran’s groups out there P
