I made it to Ecuador 🇪🇨. I am here for Copa Cata.

I am excited be going to speak in Kenya, Uganda and Zimbabwe about industrial hemp. I will talk about the benefits of producing hemp for paper and fiber, and the long history of hemp. From 1988 to 1997, I ran Tree Free EcoPaper and worked to manufacture and market hemp paper.

In Jan. 2025, I will be in Kenya, Uganda & Zimbabwe to speak about hemp paper & fiber, & the history of hemp. From 1988 to 1997, I ran Tree Free EcoPaper making hemp paper in China. Sponsored by the National Industrial Hemp Council of America, with a grant from the US Department of Agriculture.

I'm excited to go back to Ecuador to assist the Fundacion to promote cannabis legalization. I am privileged to join a team to judge the Copa Cata, to evaluate Ecuador's finest cannabis. I hope to see you there.

I have grown organic cannabis for over 40 years. I have won several awards for the quality of my flowers. Here are pictures with Jorge Cervantes, Ed Rosenthal, John Trudell, my wife, Theresa, and my associate Bill.

I met Willie Nelson in 1990, when Gatewood Galbraith introduced me. I helped him, his band, road crew and family get medical marijuana permits 2009-2016. I was their licensed grower and gave them many pounds of my homegrown cannabis flowers.
