Nevada’s Largest Hemp Grower

It started as a seed. One small seed from Bulgaria. One high-quality hemp seed that became a plant, which — in the spring of 2018 — fostered more plants, which in turn became fields of green that have prospered in the soils and sun of Nevada. It’s a brief history with a bright future. Today, Western States Hemp is Nevada’s leading grower of hemp. The 100-acre operation in 2018 has expanded far beyond that in just a few years. More importantly, Western States Hemp is dedicated to nurturing the industry as well as its own land. Former ranchers and farmers are turning to the experienced team (and its on staff agronomist) to prepare for the expectations, opportunities and challenges of converting to industrial hemp farming.
