“The growth we are seeing in Southern Oregon’s industrial hemp industry is incredibly strong as is demonstrated by the explosion of hemp licenses and acreage in this area,” said Hemp, Inc. CEO Bruce Perlowin. “However, with quick growth comes a lot of learning, which is why we have set out to help these hardworking Southern Oregon farmers, entrepreneurs and investors gain a clear understanding of the market and its growth potential from experienced industry leaders. Speakers are both local and interstate experts and it’s our goal that after the workshop, attendees are confident in the crop, in the industry and feel supported.”
Key issues discussed at the workshop will include harvesting, processing and profit channels. Panels include discussions on ethics, profits and sustainability, and regional identity, specifically tailored for Southern Oregon-grown hemp. At the workshop, there will be an Entrepreneur's Market that will showcase various products and services that align with a prosperous harvest season.
Perlowin added, “In each of the past Southern Oregon Hemp University workshops, we have seen an incredible turnout and attendees continue to come back to continue their education. This is a truly unique experience that services everyone from first-time hemp farmers to serial investors and industry experts with years of experience. It is inspiring seeing everyone in the same room who is just as passionate about this crop as I am and helping one another succeed.”

The Company also released news yesterday that it has geared up to produce 20,000 hemp pre-rolls per day and, according to executives, is already preparing to increase that amount to 20,000 per hour. The company’s smokable product, to enter the marketplace, is a high-end, top quality product that is both effective and flavorful. With one pre-roll selling for $10 retail, coupled with the infrastructure already in place for fast production, Hemp, Inc. expects to bring in major revenue by quarter’s end.
According to Perlowin, Hemp, Inc. made the decision this year to grow hemp predominantly for a smokable product that focuses on CBD levels and terpene profiles. While some of Hemp, Inc.’s harvest will go to biomass for oil and isolate production, a significant amount will be used in the production of smokable products. This vertical integration merges seamlessly with Hemp, Inc.’s processing facilities which specialize in drying and curing the flower for smoking.
