Building on the success of their sold-out 2019 Missouri Hemp Conference, the Missouri Hemp Association (MHA) has organized another grower conference. The “Heart of America – Agricultural Hemp Classic” was held at Stoney Creek Hotel & Conference Center in Independence, Missouri.
The event, open to growers throughout the Midwest, included speakers on growing hemp indoors and outdoors, as well as processors, end-users, and more.
