In order for hemp to be used more effectively, more cultivated land, hemp processing machines, academics, students, farmers and community workers who are willing to work in this field are needed.

Why Hemp?
Hemp is naturally resistant to agricultural diseases and pests. Can be grown with no pesticides, agricultural chemicals, fungicides. Unlike many other commercial plants, hemp needs little water and it is highly efficient when it comes to removing carbon dioxide.
It is considered one of the most environmental friendly commercial crops with thousands of uses, it has fast-growing cycle and reduces manufacturing costs as well as carbon emissions. These properties put hemp in a superior position amongst other agricultural plants.
Carbon Sequestration
Hemp is one of the best plants in terms of carbon sequestration. From the moment hemp is planted, it begins to absorb carbon from the atmosphere.
Hemp plants breathe in two times more carbon dioxide than trees. One acre of hemp can remove 10 tonnes of carbon from the air. The hurds obtained during the processing can be subjected to pyrolysis to obtain biochar with a high carbon ratio. Biochars made from hemp can be used to increase soil fertility or to capture carbon in building materials and lower their carbon footprint.
Plant Rotation
Although hemp can be successfully grown continuously for several years on the same land, in long run we prefer rotation with other crops. 4-year rotation involves cabbage, carrots, beets, spinach, onion, garlic, legumes and clover or alfalfa. It matters very little what crops are grown prior to hemp.*
Phytoremediation
Preliminary work in Germany suggested that hemp could be grown on soils contaminated with heavy metals, while the fiber remained virtually free of the metals. We find it unwise to grow hemp as an oilseed on contaminated soils, but such a habitat is suitable for a fiber or biomass crop. Our future plans include additional study for the possibility of using hemp for bioremediation.

Earthist is started as a collective working together
on every level from seed to sales.
Our journey started with cold-pressing seeds for oil for our friends and family and then learned about lost seeds of Mesopotamia oldest civilization known. Best ways to save the seeds were to grow them. So as farmers already, we became hemp farmers as combining wisdom of this ancient plant and our agricultural regenerative practices respecting cultural traditions in different regions.
We propose to clean the highly degraded soil while creating jobs for small farmers and support local artisan groups for best hemp creations that are useful.One of the challenges we face was very slow and short termist policies. Hemp is hope. With our practice and capabilities of web3, we trust that floral consciousness will prevail.
