Northern Rivers Hemp, <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Cullen Street [Opposite Post Office]<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Workshops, talks, demos and expo on industrial hemp ALL WEEKEND!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

2023 Mardigrass Hemp Expo<\/strong> will showcase the multiplicity of uses of the wondrous hemp plant’s seeds and fibre. Our highly experienced Hempies have had many years of experience in developing hemp for new clean green hemp farming and renewable raw materials to replace mining and petrochemicals. Hemp can sequester up to 20 tonnes of carbon dioxide per hectare each year, more than any other crop or woodland. Cultivating hemp for its flowers, edible seeds, fibres and hurds, and with the right know-how and tools, we can use this amazing plant to create thousands of high quality products. Hemp helps us free our minds, make healthy food, keep us warm, build a house, maybe even help save the world. This will be a great chance to meet farmers who are discovering just why Cannabis used to be the most grown plant on the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT: We\u2019ve all heard about the benefits of CBD oil, but did you know that cannabis is not the only plant that can affect your cannabinoid receptors? The oil from this tree works directly on your CB2 receptors and is anti-inflammatory, relieves pain, promotes wound healing, treats a wide variety of infections, prevents liver damage, and can even be used as an aphrodisiac! Best of all it can safely be taken by people with a cannabis intolerance.
