Say the word hemp to anyone, and chances are many will either have notions of illegal drug use, sandal wearing bearded non-conformists and for those old enough to remember – the heady days of the 60’s.

But mention that the hemp plant contains vital life giving oils, anti-oxidants and vitamins, as well as possessing huge medicinal qualities; ranging from effective pain relief through to relieving depression; most will be left amazed with the plants versatility. And the good news doesn’t stop there – research has proven that the all too often demonised cannabis plant could be the answer to current concerns over global warming, with clothes, technical textiles, other industrial products, paper, building materials, food stuffs, body care all being made from the hemp plant.

Simply growing hemp could relieve many of the planets problems too! And could – if adopted on a bigger scale - prove a massive boon to the agricultural industry. Hemp is pest resistant, it suppresses weeds, and it’s a soil improver making for excellent animal bedding and feed.



…and that is why we are staging the 4th annual Hemp Expo at the Telford International Centre in May 5, 6, & 7th 2007.

To let the world know why we need hemp in our lives!



WITH OVER £250,000 WORTH OF FREE SEED

GIVEN TO THE FIRST 10,000 THROUGH THE DOOR!



At the show, there will be exhibitors from all four corners of the globe – with gift ideas and speakers from the industry, all waiting to offer advice, a licensed restaurant and entertainment. In addition there will be a chance for visitors to relax in a healing tee-pee, where alternative therapies in the form of ‘samplers’ can be enjoyed by anyone.

Hope to see you there!

Phil

Having been able to go to 'Spannabis' in 2006 Barcelona, I would definitely recommend going. We discovered a device there called "digital air" which was perhaps the most complicated way of ever getting high. But bloody hell, it worked.
