Hemp Field Day on August 23

August 8, 2022

The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development’s (MDARD) Industrial Hemp Program Manager Molly Mott will be participating in a panel discussion during Essen Atlas’s upcoming Hemp Field Day on August 23. This informal field day is being held on a 60-acre farm and will be focusing on the hemp fiber and seed industry with discussions about Michigan’s future with hemp fiber, food, and fuel. In addition to Ms. Mott, the panel discussion will also have Christie Apple from Cropscout Christie, Dr. James DeDecker from Michigan State University, farmer Nate Wittikamp, and Cory VanderZwaag and Rusty Peterson from Essen Atlas. Molly will be available to answer questions about the state’s Industrial Hemp cultivation program.

The event is scheduled to take place from 1-5pm in Custer Michigan. Contact GrowWithUs@EssenAtlas.com or 616-558-3221 to RSVP. This is not an MDARD-sponsored event - please contact Essen Atlas with any questions about the field day.
