 |  A travel documentary film series about commercial hemp |
It's
a movie about a plant . . .
.
. . culture, art, economics and environment converging in an independent, multi-media
film.
"...and
there's at least one moment that is downright poetic"
-- HempWorld magazine.
"This
is as much a travelogue of the Pacific northwest as it is a hemp video. The opening
credits, soundtrack and narration give a good idea of what is in store: a collage
of images, sounds and ideas."

This is a broadcast message from the HempenRoad film project, a travel-documentary film about hemp in the Pacific NW. #10 in a series.
Greetings: Just a short note to let you know the the HempenRoad Winter tour is starting to come together. To start things off, check it out at the Midnight Sun in downtown Olympia WA on Friday Nov. 21st at 8:00pm.
The film does feature some Oly-local hemp action and music too (hey, maybe you can see yourself!). Not only the film, but also Live Music and tasty beverages (Mmmm hemp java). Presented with our friends at "aXis Music & Media Dispatch" and "MooreHempCo." 2 bux gets you in.
We are working on other dates in Oregon, Utah, BC, Wyoming, California and everywhere else. Any ideas? Let us know and be sure to stay tuned in this channel for the scoop. Can't wait til it rolls into town? Check out http://www.hempenroad.com to score a video copy.

The voters of Washington State rejected ballot initiative #685 which would've permitted medicinal use of schedule1 controlled drugs. Further, HIP-WS #147 is in hibernation until next round too. See http://www.hemp.net for more info.
While a setback, this does set the stage for a more focused hemp bill, and an election victory, next year I do believe.
California's Hemptech released a fine new book called Hemp Horizons by John Roulac. Besides being a very well produced and written book, it also features some of my Hemp in Japan research. Check it at: http://www.hemptech.com
HempBC ran full page ads in Vancouver's 2 biggest newspapers urging the world leaders attending the APEC summit to reconsider hemp prohibition. Beauty activism 'eh. Cannabis Canada's mailing list fills you in.
All for now, Enjoy Knowledge!
