The 6th annual Hemp History Week, “a nation-wide education campaign and marketing program that seeks to renew strong support for hemp farming in the U.S. while raising awareness about the benefits of hemp products”, is now officially underway.
This year’s campaign will include “grass-roots events across the country, nationwide retail promotions, hemp plantings (in some states where hemp farming is legal under Section 7606 of the U.S. Farm Bill), documentary screenings, and farmer outreach”, according to the Hemp Industries Association, the group that started Hemp History Week.
