Update: January 18, 2018: The California Hemp Foundation has signed a cooperative MOU with an established agricultural research institution for the "California Industrial Hemp Cultivation and Production Revitalization Project".
The project begins today! Interested parties should contact the California Hemp Foundation for more information. This agreement envisions including farming entities statewide, to accomplish our goal of re-introducing Hemp to the farming communities and in doing so, re-introduce Hemp into our everyday culture, for everyday citizens of California to benefit by. The projects listed below are smaller parts of the overall plan, crafted county by county to fit the needs of each local community.

* Project #1: Hemp Seed Pilot Program Number 1: Approved - COMPLETED
Under this pilot program we worked with a local Northern California County (Yolo) community of farmers to provide Hemp seed and support through one of our generous sponsors.
California Hemp Foundation supports programs with donations from our sponsors philanthropic giving to ensure that Hemp is grown in California, once again.
For the details on the outcome of this research, contact us through this website.
* Project #2: Hemp Seed Pilot Program Number 2: Approved - IN PROCESS - Funded, more Sponsors/Donors Needed For: On-going operations/data collection.
We currently have eight (8) farm locations (fully funded) statewide growing Hemp.
More funding, equals more farms. Donors should contact the CHF.
Under this customized pilot program we will be providing on-going support to our partner farms to realize the growth of the 1st certified organic Hemp in 80 years. Data collection, seed certification and other important research goals are being realized.

* Project #3: Hemp Building Products Design Kickstarter Fund #1: Approved - IN PROCESS - Sponsors/Donors Needed.
This project will about supporting various Colleges statewide in creating new ideas for building affordable housing using sustainable materials, such as Hempcrete and other Hemp fibre based products. We are in the planning stage . We are working with other partners to help bring this course to fruition. More information is available upon request.

* Project #4: Bio Renewables Hemp Hub Fund #1: Approved - IN PROCESS - Sponsors/Donors Needed.
This project is in the planning stage. We intent to help bring bio renewable fuels, plant growing mats, bio-plastics and other Hemp based products to market in 2018. We are seeking partners/donors to build out the processing facilities in state. More information is available upon request.
