huge and consumers need to know eating hemp seeds is healthy. We are committed to making our brand a well-respected and known name; but at this point, it’s passion that is currently running our bottom line. Part of our success will be within the American consumer knowing about the nutritional benefits of eating hemp. When a customer voluntarily calls and reports to us how their blood sugar is better than it has been in decades since they started eating hemp seeds daily; or when someone informs us how eating hemp seeds has helped then to drop 25 pounds; or how chronic digestive issues and constipation have been resolved now that they are eating hempseeds; or when someone tells us their joint pain has been reduced tremendously and leg cramps have gone away simply because they are eating hemp seeds; it’s very inspiring. The need for “scientific study” is a moot point to us. This is not magic, it’s simply good nutrition from a nutrient dense seed. Our increase in sales to date is supporting that our products are good. Customers are returning to purchase again. To date we have been self-funded and have been cautious in growing too fast in order to be sure we are aligned properly to meet demands. One of our biggest challenges is the ignorance surrounding hemp seed. Times are changing and people are ready to embrace what industrial hemp has to offer. THE NEED Having hemp as the main ingredient in our products has its price. Our product line is costly because of the cost of importing quality hemp seeds from Canada. In building consumer demand the ability to make the product more affordable will be the ability to purchase hemp seeds stateside. As a nation, we must nullify the federal prohibition on industrial hemp agriculture here in the United St ates. Not only for the food supply, but for the thousands of products and jobs it will provide. Better eating is beneficial to everyone, not only for our quality of life, but it is a huge factor in managing health care costs. When children eat well, they are able to perform better at school thus helping with some of the education struggles that our school system is faced with. Please take a stand and cast a vote with your dollars. Buy USA Made hemp products. When you do, we hope you chose our Cousin Mary Jane and Lady Jane Gourmet Seed Co brands. We want people to benefit from the nutrition in hemp seeds. We want to be on more store shelves. It’s your voting dollar that can help get industrial hemp back in our farm fields and more USA Made hemp products on our store shelves. Hemp is not the best product because we sell it; we sell it because it is the best. #EatMoreHemp It should be noted that our business focus with the industrial hemp plant is that of the hempseed due to its nutritional value. The value of the hempseed is not limited to food. The oil from the seed can provide a clean, renewable fuel and energy source that could be very powerful in making a change to how the world gets its energy. Hempseeds, it’s the seed we all need.
