National Hemp Month
654 products
Every July, National Hemp Month celebrates the roaring comeback of one of the world’s most useful and versatile plants – hemp.
For more than 80 years, laws banning cannabis also exiled hemp, even though it’s not intoxicating. Now, legal advancements are changing how people view and access hemp. National Hemp Month offers an occasion to rediscover hemp and its usefulness for both people and the environment.
Hemp provides an all-natural, eco-friendly fiber with many applications, ranging from clothing to paper to “hempcrete.” As a crop, it helps clean pollutants from the soil. Hemp also provides a rich source of CBD, the hottest new addition to the health and wellness world.
Hemp is cannabis, but it’s different from its notorious sister herb. The 2014 Farm Bill legally defined hemp as the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of the plant that is less than 0.3% THC by dry weight. Therefore, the plant cannot result in any associated “high.” The bill also provided for a limited amount of hemp farming under government supervision.
The 2018 Farm Bill opened up the farming program and also removed all hemp-based products from the federal government’s schedule of addictive drugs. Thanks to the federal legalization and a national curiosity, the CBD boom was in full effect – with applications ranging from tinctures and patches to topicals and cocktails.
