Columbus, Ohio – Ohio Hemp Farmers Cooperative, an organization of hemp industry professionals, lobbyists and up and comers announced the date of the 2nd Annual Hemp Farm Summit to be held Saturday, September 28, 2019 in Circleville, Ohio. The Hemp Farm Summit was established in 2018 to bring together the individuals interested in seeding, farming, processing, packaging and marketing hemp in the State of Ohio. The caliber and expert speakers attending will be speaking on the new legalities, what it means to work with the Hemp Farmers Cooperative (Co-Op) as a new or existing land owner and farmer, insurance, banking and much more.

As an industry event, this is not for the general consumer seeking product information, but for individuals and organizations seeking qualified industry knowledge and networking. “Education is the key to success in this budding industry. I want to make it easier for farmers to get into the market as the opportunities are wide open. It all starts with the farmers.” said Julie Doran, founder and President of the Ohio Hemp Farmers Co-Op. “The level of interest in our initiatives has only grown in the past year. With Governor DeWine signing the Senate Bill 57 decriminalizing hemp products in the State in July, we are looking to educate those interested in planting and farming hemp crops for production in 2020 and beyond.”
