Why Hemp?

Why is hemp paper all the rage? Because it's super sustainable, smart, and simply beautiful. Here's some fun facts:

• Hemp fibers are naturally light so require less bleach than wood pulp paper
• A hemp field produces 4 to 5 times as much paper as a forest of the same size
• Hemp can be harvested 3 times a year. In comparison, a tree needs 7 years or more
• Hemp doesn't deplete soil, is naturally pest resistant, and doesn't give weeds a chance, so fewer pesticides and herbicides are needed
• Hemp fibers are 5 times longer than wood fibers. This not only creates a stronger paper, but a paper that can be recycled many more times.
