Why Hemp?
Sustainability
Hemp is a weed, it grows prolifically with little water and pesticides. It is biodegradable and produces more pulp per acre than trees.
Sustainability
Hemp has long been used to produce more than 25,000 products throughout 9 industries. At one point, it was the most cultivated crop in the world and a staple amongst global economies.
Eco-Friendly
Hemp requires very little herbicides or pesticides to grow, if any. It is biodegradable and naturally resistant to pests.
Eco-Friendly
Hemp products are biodegradable and arguably the most sustainable crop in the world. It can produce more than 3x the amount of pulp per acre than trees with much fewer acres.
Durability
Hemp is considered the strongest natural textile fiber in the world. It has long been used to make rope for US Navy Battle Ships.
Durability
There's a reason the declaration of Independence was written on hemp paper-it is resistant to mold and ultraviolet light. Because of its porous composition, hemp retains color and form better than any other fabric, including cotton. 💪
Hemp is so strong, Henry Ford built a car out of it,
and it was said to be 10x stronger than steel 🤯
From the paper the Declaration of Independence was written on, to the rope on US Navy Battle ships, hemp roots are deep in American history.Â
Between deforestation and wildfires, about 55,000 trees are cut down every minute.
We are determined to slow that number down with quality hemp products.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who will plant the trees?
Hempora has partnered with the Arbor Day Foundation to leave the tree planting to the professionals. They work closely with professional forestry partners including the U.S. Forest Service, and other government agencies and NGOs. They collect donations and send the funds to their reforestation partners, enabling them to cover the costs required to plant the trees.
Where are the trees being planted?
They will be planted in a variety of forests on public and private lands in areas of great need. Many of these forests will be state and national forests managed by government agencies. The Arbor Day Foundation ensures the right trees are planted in the right place, at the right time.Â
When will my trees be planted?
We donate to The Arbor Day Foundation on the last day of every month. You can expect your tree to be planted the following month after purchase. Make sure you opt in to our newsletter to receive updates on our partnership with the Arbor Days Foundation and different projects we are working on for sustainability!
What species of trees are planted?
The motto of the Arbor Days Foundation is to plant the right trees, in the right place, for the right reasons. Depending on the location and what is needed, they will plant trees that best suit the surrounding ecosystem to give them the best chance of success.Â
