The Canadian Hemp Trade Alliance’s event, 2024 Hemp Canada Conference & Expo, will again bring together producers, processors, retailers, academia, consumers, and government to share the advancements made and challenges faced by the Canadian hemp industry while driving Sustainable Futures.
Increasingly, Sustainability is a concern affecting many consumer decisions.  Hemp is unique among other crops in that every part of the plant has utility and potential market value.  With its resilience and variety, hemp can be a better long-term investment for the producer, the processor, the consumer, and the environment.  For over 25 years, Canadian hemp production has positively impacted social, economic, and environmental sustainability.  Support of industry partners has been key to this success.
