Building Communities
If hemp were legal to grow in the United States, it would allow small, family farmers and individual citizens to grow a renewable cash crop for clothing, food, and fuels, allowing a self-sustaining lifestyle. Ultimately, if impoverished people and citizens of third-world nations were taught and allowed to grow their own hemp crop, they would have a single, renewable source for food (hemp seed, oil, flour), clothing and textiles, and building materials (when mixed with limestone).
By growing hemp in the U.S., it would provide local communities with a means to create new jobs via a new industry. The growers, harvesters, processors, manufacturers, and retailers would have a demand for new employees as business would grow exponentially and rapidly. By growing hemp in our communities, we would provide a wealth of new jobs and opportunities in an exciting and promising “community-based” economic model.
Reducing our dependence on fossil fuels, the petroleum industries, and our government means moving toward a self-sustaining way of life. Growing, harvesting, and using industrial hemp can be one of the foundations toward living “off the grid” and reducing our dependence on non-sustainable energy sources.
