If you’re a farmer, a manufacturer, an environmentalist, or a retailer, help us change the world by joining the Florida Sustainable Agriculture Cooperative. You are the value behind this new industry, and we welcome your ideas and outlook. the CBD market is only a fraction of the hemp industry’s potential. Hemp—as well as kenaf and bamboo—regenerates the soil, pumps oxygen back into the environment, leads to cleaner water, ensures a healthier agricultural sector, and secures a socio-economic future for farmers pursuing a cash crop. Hemp stalks can be used for construction, manufacturing, fiber, carpeting, webbing, twine, rope, cosmetics, paint, car parts, boats, furniture, electronics—and as a nontoxic, renewable replacement for petrochemical plastics. Kenaf touts a super toughness, used in rope, twine, fabric, and paper but with a strengthening potential for use in concrete and construction.  Bamboo offers versatility, renewability, and strength—used for fiber, packaging material, construction (housing, bridges, roads), medicine, durable clothing, textiles, furnishings, and more.
