The email address for contacting  Project Manager Dwight Jory was incorrect in a previous release.     The corrected release follows.

SPRING HOPE, NC, May 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hemp, Inc. (OTC PINK: HEMP), a global leader in the industrial hemp industry with the largest multipurpose industrial hemp processing facility in the western hemisphere, announced today that its strategic growing partner, “Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc.,” was  featured in an article  by The Kingman Daily Miner regarding its veteran-focused business project taking shape in Mohave County, Arizona. The Kingman Daily Miner is a local newspaper serving Kingman, Arizona and Mohave counties. 

Hemp, Inc.  announced earlier this month  that Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc., had completed installation of the solar and wind-powered energy system for its 500-acre Veteran Village Kins Community in Golden Valley, Arizona.  The Veteran Village Kins Community is designed to grow hemp and produce cannabidiol (CBD) products to benefit veterans as well as generate revenue for Hemp, Inc., the Veteran Village, and individual veterans living in the community.

The article, “Hemp Farm Under Development in Golden Valley,” details how the 500 acres in Mohave County are being developed to create a hemp-growing community that will provide veterans an opportunity to take part in the multi-billion dollar hemp industry, which is expected to grow to more than $2.1 billion by 2020.

“In a public company, you’re supposed to make a profit,” Hemp, Inc. CEO, Bruce Perlowin, told The Kingman Daily Miner. “However, you can make a profit and help American veterans at the same time, to help solve social problems.” According to Perlowin, the company is coordinating tours of the 500-acre Veteran Village Kins Community with master growers from all over America. “The business model has changed from master growers growing on 50 acres to 5 acres.  Five-acre lots are much more manageable. We are also in the process of setting up a 60-ft dome for the Hemp University classes, here in Arizona. Classes are tentatively scheduled to start July 2018.”

Interested master growers, from around the country, should contact Project Manager, Dwight Jory at ecogold22@gmail.com.

Read the following October 24, 2017 press release,  Hemp, Inc. Announces Strategic Hemp Growing Partner "Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc." Completes Final Site Plan Blueprints , below:

Hemp, Inc.  has announced that its strategic growing partner, "Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc.," has completed its final site plan blueprints for its 500-acre site in Golden Valley, Arizona (20 miles north of Kingman, AZ and 90 minutes from Las Vegas, NV). The site plan was submitted to the Mohave County Building Department for final review. The Company is also in the final stages of completing the necessary infrastructure to support an off-grid, renewable, energy system. With the solar equipment in place, the site's solar power operation is now complete.

Dwight Jory, the Project Manager for the "Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc.", said, "We are very happy with the progress. Our Kins Community is really beginning to come together." In anticipation of planting to begin during the spring, 300 acres have been fenced, 16 overnight trailer park sites are under construction, and six 40x40-ft organic vegetable gardens are ready for seasonal planting, according to Jory. As for the 6 geodesic domes mentioned in an earlier press release, 1 is structurally complete with only the electrical and plumbing to be completed. The rest are on site awaiting final site plan approval. "We are now accepting volunteers who have expressed an interest in helping to build the first Kins Community for our veterans," said Jory. Those interested in making the first hemp growing CBD-producing "Veteran Village Kins Community" become a reality should contact Ms. Sandra Williams via email (swilliams@hempinc.com).

One thousand trees, on 36 of the 500-acres, have also been planted, with an additional 1,000 trees on order. The "Veteran Village Kins Community" site plan also includes a 100,000-square foot GMP compliant, central processing plant, CBD testing laboratory, and various health and wellness centers to support veterans who may have psychological, emotional or health issues.

 "As Hemp, Inc. positions itself on the forefront of America's industrial hemp revolution, we see our partnership with 'Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc.' being paramount in supporting the small family farm movement that we are confident will reshape the American landscape," said Perlowin. "As we work toward getting our eco-village up and running in Arizona, we are also aggressively scouting strategic locations in other states including North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee and West Virginia. Giving veterans and other Americans a place to learn new skills and take part in this multi-billion-dollar hemp CBD market is very exciting. It's a big part of our mission to give back." 

According to Perlowin, seven "master hemp growers" from Oregon, Colorado, California, Kentucky, North Carolina, Nevada and, of course, Arizona have expressed an interest in pursuing a joint venture with Hemp, Inc. to each grow industrial hemp on the 300 fenced acres in Arizona. Perlowin says he'll call this "The Great United American Hemp Project."
