The Hemp Beer Project - Fasamo Hemp Seeds
One of the challenges in growing Hemp is obtaining seeds. You are not allowed to possess viable hemp seed unless you have recieved an excemption to cultivate Hemp from Health Canada. Ironically, low-THC hemp seeds are harder to come by than marijuana seeds.
Thankfully, I was able to aquire seeds a number of years ago. Last summer, I produced a few plants and collected the seed for this years project. The fasimo strain I produced is common to Canada and is cultivated in Saskatchewan by a growing number of farmers.
More information about Saskatchewan Hemp industry can be found in the Hemp Report.
Growing Hemp for personal use is still very much illegal, as I mentioned. Ridiculously, growing Hemp is considered the same as growing marijuana. This idiotic situation contraveines so many of our rights and should be struck down. All Canadians should have the unquestioned right to produce hemp in thier gardens just as they do carrots, tomatoes, and other produce.
Here is a good summary of the law from Health Canada.

I produced much more seed than I can possible use. If anyone wants a few seeds, I would be happy to send some seed packs to anyone that will cover the cost of shipping. Just send me an email.
If you want to purchase seeds, allow me to recommend this site: Vancouver Seed Bank
