Misunderstood - A Brief History of Hemp in the US

[lordsummerisle]

The environmentally friendly outdoor apparel and gear company Patagonia has been using legally sourced hemp fibers in its clothing since 1997.

Now that hemp is legal again in the U.S., Patagonia is working to establish a domestic supply of hemp, which could create new American jobs.

Hemp was criminalized in the U.S. for decades, but the 2018 Farm Bill made industrial hemp legal to be cultivated, sold and transferred across state lines.

The featured film, “Misunderstood: A Brief History of Hemp in the U.S.,” shows the history of hemp in America, as well as highlights the plant’s many uses.
