Overview

Kentucky farmer Scott Essex calls hemp “God’s plant” because it produces CBD (cannabidiol), an extract that can relieve pain, depression and anxiety. The way he sees it, when hemp was illegal, his family and friends suffered. Now, after its legalization, Essex is partnering with a product manufacturer to experiment with plant breeds and organic growing methods. Through this film, he introduces us to the promise as well as challenges of his farming venture.
