Hemp is a versatile crop that priduces high-value fibre, food and oil. Find out how it can be integrated into a regenerative agricultural system at the first GREAT seminar, given by an agronomist from Hempen, based at the Hardwick Estate, Oxon.

Joe McGahan is the visionary founder of the farm-to-fork hemp and CBD co-operative, Hempen.

Before working in hemp agronomy around the UK and internationally, Joe worked at Kew Gardens and Tolhurst Organics. Hempen supports growers to diversify into hemp production with a specialist focus on organic and regenerative agriculture.
