Growing Hemp in New Jersey

Click for show notes.

Episode 68: Farmers in New Jersey can now grow industrial hemp in the Garden State. In this week’s show, we talk to New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture Doug Fisher and the Director of the Division of Plant Industry at the New Jersey Department of Agriculture Joe Zoltowski. We dig into the details of the New Jersey hemp program, including licensing fees and structure, acreage and testing requirements.

Then we meet a young entrepreneur from Chester County, Pennsylvania, Charles Streitwieser, founder of Streitwieser Designs and maker of an all hemp product called the Charlie Bag.
