WHY HEMP?

IN CALIFORNIA

The hemp industry is proving profitable for savvy farmers across the nation. With California’s ideal cannabis climates and millions of acres of fertile soil, hemp is a perfect match. It’s time for the Golden State to secure itself as the epicenter of US hemp production.

Unsure about hemp? Switching into this exciting and federally legal industry in its infancy comes with substantial perks.
