Next to the ones you get off a friend, the best hemp socks come from S A T O R I . I wear hemp socks, but I don’t have any S A T O R I socks yet. I just found out about them at the San Francisco Green Festival.
I’m still wearing old-school, undyed, thick, ribbed, 80s-style, scrunch socks! But, they’re hemp. And, at least I can say that by choosing these socks over conventional cotton, I’ve reduced the use of toxic pesticides and chemical fertilizer while conserving energy, land and water. See how at HempTown.
Wearing hemp socks is 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, 2007, I vowe to:
- EAT HEMP—
I’m going to eat hemp at every meal. - WEAR HEMP—
I’m going to wear hemp every day. - BATHE IN HEMP—
I’m going to wash and shampoo with hemp every day. - BEAUTIFY WITH HEMP—
I’m going to use hemp beauty and body care products every day. - COMMUNICATE WITH HEMP—
I’m going to use hemp paper every time I write or print something. - LIVE THE HEMP LIFE—
I’m going to make use of hemp in every way I can. - VOTE HEMP —
