ABOUT HEMP
Why we're big fans of Hemp
Hemp Agriculture  Hemp improves soil quality as it grows. It requires no herbicides and is naturally resistant to insects, fungus and other pests. Hemp suppresses weeds and shades and mulches the ground, which its deep taproots break up and aerate. Hemp promotes healthy soil life and leaves the earth in a condition where it is easily worked and able to maintain moisture for the next growing season.
An Alternative to Cotton  Cotton is one of the most environmentally destructive agricultural crops, annually using over 275 million pounds of pesticides in the US alone. Hemp provides an ecological alternative to cotton.
An Alternative to Fossil Fuel  Hemp can reduce our use of synthetic textile fibers. Synthetic textile fibers are not biodegradable, generate pollution in their production, and are made from non-renewable petroleum.
An Alternative to Deforestation Hemp can be processed into construction materials and paper products of excellent strength and quality, easing some of the unsustainable burden placed on our forests. An acre of hemp actually produces more than four times as much pulp for paper making than an acre of trees when figured on an annual basis.

Why Hemp is great in the kitchen
Hemp is strong, durable, breathable, absorbent and quick drying. That's why we offer aprons, kitchen towels, oven mitts, hot pads and shopping bags all made from organic hemp.
