Himalayan Hemp - Eco Project - Global Ecovillage Network

Himalayan Hemp Organisation is India’s first Hemp Cooperative Society of farmers and eco-preneurs following AIDA (Awareness, Intent, Desire, and Action) for promoting sustainable development with smart organic farming, innovation integration, and a fair economic model by utilising and preserving the indigenous Himalayan hemp strain.

Our first product is Himalayan Hemp Sanitary Pads which are organic, biodegradable, healthy, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and highly effective for post-natal menstruating women. We are planning to install these sanitary pad setups in multiple villages so that women can not only have a side income but can also provide a menstrual gift to other women.

As a more elaborated vision, Himalayan Hemp Cooperative Society has developed an economic model and it will be fairly distributed for running four main sections of the eco-village as Himalayan Hemp Seed Bank, Himalayan Hemp Healing Village, Himalayan Hemp Research Institute, and Himalayan Hemp Industries.

Note: We are trying to preserve the indigenous variety of hemp, not the industrial hemp which is actually an unverified plant being spread in various parts of the world which makes it important to preserve the indigenous variety of hemp as well.
