I am so glad I didn't miss posting about this festival. The 2008 Seattle Hempfest is taking place this weekend in Seattle, Washington. The festival takes place August 16th and 17th - with doors opening 10:00 AM and closing at 8:00 PM on both days.
The Seattle Hempfest has a very clear objective and purpose:
"To educate the public on the myriad of potential benefits offered by the Cannabis plant, including the medicinal, industrial, agricultural, economic, environmental, and other benefits and applications, including domestic industrial hemp production and commerce. In particular, Seattle Hempfest seeks to advance the cause of Cannabis policy reform through education, while advancing the public image of the Cannabis advocate or enthusiast through example."
This year Seattle Hempfest will be celebrating it's 17th year and will be celebrating this year with the theme of Industrial Hemp.
The festival will feature five stages of music and will feature the largest gathering of Hemp and Marijuana policy speakers in the world.
Please check out the official website listed below for full line-up information along with a list of all the speakers who will be in attendance.
Seattle Hempfest is really a great festival that supports a wonderful cause!
