use hemp

I’m wearing a HempTown sweatshirt with the Ely Hemp Mercantile logo on it that I got on location in Ely, Minnesota, Patagonia hemp jeans that I got at the Patagonia store here in DC, and Ipath sneakers that I got at The Hempest in Boston.

I wear hemp everyday, but it’s not enough. We’re still not growing industrial hemp in the US!

I’m going to do more. I’m making my New Year’s Resolution to be a Hemp Aficionado, promoting hemp by making this amazing plant a part of everything I do.

As of January 1st, I vowe to:

1. EAT HEMP—
   I’m going to eat hemp at every meal.
2. WEAR HEMP—
   I’m going to wear hemp every day.
3. BATHE IN HEMP—
   I’m going to wash and shampoo with hemp every day.
4. BEAUTIFY WITH HEMP—
   I’m going to use hemp beauty and body care products every day.
5. COMMUNICATE WITH HEMP—
   I’m going to use hemp paper every time I write or print something.

   I’m going to make use of hemp in every way I can.
