Hawaii Hemp Conference in Hilo

[HereOnThePrimalEdge]

I just received this from @hawaii.gov. The Hawaii Hemp Conference will be held on June 10, 2017 at the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel. There are three levels of participation, including the free Marketplace. There is also a discussion about farming hemp in Hawaii. From their website:

Hemp products and services including apparel, food, body-care, textiles, health supplements, coffee and teas, bio-plastics & composites, building materials, paper and more! Let’s Talk Hemp Hawaii Speaker Series – Tickets on Sale Now!

On the fifth day - the scientists who studied the rivers - were forbidden to speak - or to study the rivers. -Jane Hirshfield's poem on creation

I wonder how much the "industrial hemp cultivation permits" will cost...

I spend way too much on hemp as it is & already know how to grow. I'll be skipping.

I'd really like to see the textiles and apparel. Hemp cloth is a great investment because it's natural and lasts a long time IMO.
Lucky for us, we have our own dear Hemp Seamstress at Maku'u Farmer's Market providing well made and colorful Hemp clothing, so attendance at the Conference isn't mandatory if you like hemp products.
