    • We directly engage in regenerative agriculture through our own farm as well as our partner farms
    • Our micro-farm provides habitat for insects, birds, reptiles and wide array of wild animals
    • Indigenous permaculture design allows our farm to absorb and retain water from rainfall thereby greatly reducing our need for irrgation throughout the dry summer and fall months
    • At our micro-farm we cultivate cannabis (hemp), bamboo and a wide variety of polyculture plants which in turn sequester CO2 greenhouse gasses such as CO2
    • We save over 10,000 gal of freshwater annually by using a compost toilet and other
    • We offset all of our company's electric and fossil fuel use via a mature and diverse 25 acre forest that we have owned and managed since 1998 located in the North Idaho Panhandle

    • We attend and support community events in an effort to educate and inspire
    • We partner with businesses, tribal communities and various events to support cannabis advocacy and reduce stigma
    • We believe in people (and good herb) so we hire them to hand-trim our flowers. We never use trim machines
    • A our farm we occasionally host WWOOFers who come to learn about agro-ecological and sustainable farming methods through first-hand experience

    At HEMPBEST We are constantly striving to offer more sustainably produced and eco-packaged products.
