I have always been impressed with the performance potential of hemp buildings and the associated impacts on the wellbeing of people.

Hemp’s innate material qualities allow for elegant one stop solutions to building science problems the industry has struggled with for years including, dealing with moisture management, fire rated assemblies, IAQ, net carbon storing solutions, and continuous thermal boundary optimization.

Hemp is versatile and can be used in many different applications. I am interested in how it outperforms conventional materials while also creating a cleaner, healthier and more ecologically sound future.

As a natural building material, hemp can benefit you in the form of a healthy, breathable home, benefit your local supply chain, farmers and processors, and benefit the Earth as a fast-growing, regenerative, carbon-sequestering, high-performance building material.

It is a large plus that this new growth industry can sustainably help people and the planet for years to come. Farmers can grow hemp in rotation with corn and soybeans, adding diversity to their farming operations and their soil.  We can have bio-friendly products such as packaging, plastics, building materials, clothes, protein, and animal bedding.

Hemp has a great potential to become a cost-competitive natural building wall system compared to other natural building wall systems out there. It certainly has a better chance of doing that than most of the other styles of natural building.

 Exploiting agricultural commodities to capture and store the carbon in a useable fiber with the most incredibly sequestering commodity on this planet is important to Prairie PROducers

Hemp offers an incredible opportunity for society to move towards a natural 'back-to-the-land' way of living in harmony with nature. Hemp is initiating a resurgence in agriculture that is inspiring a new generation of farmers and entrepreneurs.

The most interesting factor about hempcrete is that buildings and structures can become more sustainable and resilient as a result of using innovative hemp based components.
