The Emerald Empire HempFest is an annual event (third weekend in July), held in a city park. It is Free-to-the-public event. Education is the primary goal of this all-volunteer effort. There will be two stages with great musical bands, speakers between music acts, a food court featuring nutritious hemp foods, art booths, and vendors featuring many hemp products, and nonprofit booths. Guest speakers will discuss the environmental benefits of hemp, medical uses of Marijuana and the futility and negative consequences of prohibition. As former organizer Eilleen Erdelt once stated: The HempFest is a family-oriented event celebrating a God-given plant that has been prohibited by man.
