A home made of hemp was one of several educational displays featured Monday at a ceremony marking the start of a 25-state road trip by Lancaster Farming’s Industrial Hemp Podcast.  Innovative uses of this recently legalized crop like homebuilding are the kinds of things that weekly podcast host Eric Hurlock plans to highlight as he visits hemp-related sites across the country.  “Agriculture has to be one of the main solutions for mitigating climate change,” Hurlock told those gathered at Monday’s event at Penn State s Southeast Agricultural Research and Extension Center in Manheim. “We can’t get out of the mess we’re in without farmers. We’re in dire straits environmentally. Hemp doesn’t have to be the answer but I haven’t seen any other crop that can do what hemp can do.”
