PA Hemp Home Shows Power of Community Economies

By Jean Lotus

Doors opened last month on a Pennsylvania home renovated with hemp grown by regional farmers, providing a showcase for the sustainability of hemp building materials in a circular economy.

In May, members of DON Enterprise testified by invitation about the benefits of industrial hemp and the local economy before the Pennsylvania House Democratic Policy Committee. DON, a New Castle family of disability organization companies, fixes and flips blighted homes to then sell for disabled residents.
