HEMP OR CANNABIS SATIVA IS A PLANT WITH L0,000 USES. ONE OF THOSE IS HEMP CONSTRUCTION. HEMP IS NOT CONSIDERED A STRUCTURAL MATERIAL IN MOST CIRCUMSTANCES, BUT NEW TECHNIQUES AND TECHNOLOGIES ARE MAKING HEMP A MORE VERSATILE BUILDING OPTION.

THIS WORKSHOP WILL EXPLORE SEVERAL BUILDING TECHNIQUES- WITH THE INTENTION OF PROVIDING COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH A NEW/OLD WAY TO MAKE SHELTER.

WITH THE SUPPORT FROM THE WEST CENTRAL MINNESOTA INITIATIVE FUND, ANISHINAABE AGRICULTURE INSTITUTE (AAI) AND WINONA’S HEMP & HERITAGE FARM WILL BE BUILDING A PARTIALLY UNDERGROUND DEEP WINTER GREENHOUSE, WITH ATTACHED GUEST ROOM, USING ALL THREE TECHNIQUES.

WE’LL COMPARE OVER THE WINTER AND SPRING AN ASSESSMENT OF THE VARIOUS TECHNIQUES IN THIS SETTING.
