Hemp is a strong fibre from a plant that uses the land well, providing more fiber per acre than cotton or flax. As a robust annual crop, it grows quickly and successfully in many different climates and requires significantly less water than crops like cotton. The plant itself replenishes the soil around it with minerals while also cleaning toxins from the ground and acting as a natural weed suppressor. For this reason, hemp is considered a carbon-negative crop meaning it removes more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than it adds, reducing its carbon footprint to less than neutral. How cool is that?!
