Vote For Hemp, My American Friends

National Farmers Union Adopts New Policy on Industrial Hemp
Majority of Leading Farming Organizations Now Support Hemp Farming in the U.S.

"Grown commercially in Canada since 1998, hemp has become one of the most profitable crops for farmers north of the U.S. border. While American farmers often net less than $50 per acre for soy and corn, Canadian hemp farmers just across the border net an average of $250 per acre." Hat Tip to Hemp & Company for the link. You can also Fan them on Facebook.



A joint project of Vote Hemp and the Hemp Industries Association, Hemp History Week is looking for patriotic Americans to anchor and organize events in their hometown as part of a national grassroots, media and public education campaign.

More posts about Hemp on my blog here and I've also come across this wonderful site that you just can't pass up: Hemp: What The World Needs Now .

Update: Read about the awesome discovery: 100-Year-Old Government Hemp Farm Diaries To Be Revealed
... "So in addition to the already-known intertwining of the noble hemp plant and U.S. history, now it is revealed that the very location of the Pentagon itself was once covered with verdant fields of cannabis."

Green Baby

Regular readers of my l'il blog here know that I'm all about being green. I extole the virtues of Hemp and all around being kind to our planet because of the wonderful gifts it gives us, and I'd like it to continue doing so for future generations.

You also know that my darling DH and I are expecting Baby #5 this Summer - It's A Boy!!! - and being the Eco-Friendly Mama that I am I've got my eye on these organicKidz Baby Bottles that I'll be using for water and any time I'm not breastfeeding.

For a chance to score a few, check out Mommy Blogger "My Organized Chaos" who just so happens to be having a contest to win two of these awesome stainless steel, recyclable, BPA Free "Baba's", as my other boys always called them when they were still wee babes. Good Luck! Bonne Chance!

BTW, I soooooo want one of these.
