Hemp Victory For The US On July 4th!

America is slowly waking up to the reality that Hemp is about to enter the main arena and they are celebrating this with raising a Hemp Flag on Washingtons' Capitol building. A symbolic event, as the first US flag was created in 1776 on the same date.

Some of the most devoted Hemp Companies from Colorada, USA (Hemp HoodLamb CO, Aqua Das from Hemp IScream, Manitou Hemp and printing company Graffitee Factory) teamed together to make a modern version of the historical hemp flag.

Breaking news happened about a week ago when Amendment 36 of the Hemp Farm Bill passed with 225 to 200 votes in the House. Hemp is on its way to finally be regulated as an agricultural commodity as it should have been for the last 75 years! In his hand, Rep. Jared Polis symbolically held the Hemp Flag created by the entrepeneurs above. 

And this particular Hemp Flag will soon fly over the White House on JULY 4^th! HoodLamb congratulates the creators of this flag and all the other freeminded and dedicated spirits writing Hemp History like Hemp advocate Michael Bowman, Lobbyist Samantha Walsh and the Rocky Mountain Hemp Association!

Laurens de Groot interview in Vega Magazine

It's a grey and rainy Summer in Amsterdam. Perfect weather to enjoy a nice coffee at one of our many coffeeshop and browse through a magazine from the reading table. Doing so, i stumbled onto Vega Magazine. A (quite) new magazine aimed at vegetariens, flexitariens and those who pursue a sustainable lifestyle.

I was proud to see an interview with European Director of Sea Shepherd, Laurens de Groot, wearing his HoodLamb Furry Hoody. It's a nice interview and the pictures are great. If you come across the magazine, check it out!
