The festival is focused on supporting local businesses and organizations that are working to improve sustainability through farming hemp. The mission of the PA Hemp Festival vendor is to educate the public about the landscape of industrial hemp and why hemp can be utilized as an alternative crop for 800+ Pennsylvania farmers. The festival will also raise awareness of the financial climate and environmental benefits of industrial hemp for individuals and businesses.
“The objective of this annual festival is to educate, collaborate and connect communities together with the knowledge and purpose of how hemp is important for our farming and processing supply lines to the Lifestyle and Wellness industry.” Jessie Johnson, Chief Peacemaker
The Hemp Agriculture Festival is dedicated to teaching people about zero-waste hemp growing, sustainability, green energy and the many benefits of regenerative agriculture through hemp.
