Join us for an open house and roundtable event to explore the economic and ecological opportunities in farming, processing, advanced manufacturing and designing with hemp as a building material.

Hemp offers enormous potential as a building material. It sequesters high amounts of carbon when growing, and requires limited water, fertilizer and pesticides. When used as a building material together with lime and water, it creates non-toxic, breathable, non-flammable walls.

The event will begin with an Open House of two recently completed homes at Wally Farms, where hemplime was used as its primary wall material, followed by a Roundtable to discuss the opportunities and bottlenecks to locally grown, manufactured and installed hemp lime construction.
