Industrial hemp is amazing. It is the plant that gives and keeps on giving. Check out these three amazing, but little known uses of industrial hemp.

Hemp helped humanity’s artistic drive. Hemp was widely used in canvases for painting. In fact, the word “canvas” can be traced to the Anglo-French word “canevaz” and ultimately the Latin word “cannapaceus” which means “made of hemp.” Given hemp’s almost limitless utility, we think the phrase “blank canvas” is particularly fitting. Hemp not only can provide the canvas, it can provide the paint as well. This unique paint is ecofriendly and natural using hemp oil as the main ingredient instead of harsh chemicals or heavy metals.
