My partner and CEO was on the call. KYHFA and it’s president, Martin Smith, are trying their best and making things happen. Martin has been tirelessly advocating for the hemp industry for more than a decade. Shout out to VP @MinkLoafs, too.

The Paul’s are Gs. They’re the only politicians, I know of, that I have respect for. If we could get more people like them in office, I’d feel a lot better about where our country’s headed.
