OFI 1341: Exploring The World (And The Stigma) Of Hemp Production | Justin Harris | Wild Ass Soaps
from Off-Farm Income
I have never delved into the world of hemp farming or of value added products made from hemp plants and seed. Today, I am finally going to break that pattern. I will be speaking with Justin Harris of Wild Ass Soaps. Justin and his wife have developed quite a family enterprise that operates with them and their children in Southwestern Nebraska. They first began with a lawn and landscaping business which grew and became very time consuming. Looking for other opportunities they began growing and selling sod from their 15 acre farm. Eventually they started to look into making soaps, and then something major happened. The production of hemp was legalized by the U.S. government. Within two years of this announcement Justin and his family were producing hemp and incorporating it into their soaps, lotions and oils.
