On February 4th, National Hemp Day proudly weaves a celebration surrounding an industry with a long and innovative history.
Did you know hemp has been a part of human civilization for thousands of years?
The world’s earliest civilizations used hemp fibers to make fabric for clothing and other materials.
Even America’s founding fathers drafted early documents on hemp paper. During the last century, leaders used a “Hemp for Victory” campaign during WWII to encourage farmers to grow hemp for military use.
Since then, hemp has been an essential material in the innovation of several industries.
For example shipping, construction, and textiles rely on hemp for numerous products.
Most recently, the construction industry started using hemp in place of concrete (known as hempcrete) since it is windproof and offers a lower carbon footprint.
