This week on the Hemp Podcast we shift gears a little bit and talk about flax. We go to Kneehigh Farm to meet Pennsylvania Flax Project founders Heidi Barr and Emma de Long who hosted a flax harvest educational event last week in Chester County, Pa.

Heidi Barr wants you to know that flax is linen and linen is flax.

A fiber artist based in Philadelphia, Barr co-founded the Pennsylvania Flax Project with Chester County farmer Emma de Long in 2020, “out of a desire to see a climate-beneficial textile crop produced regionally,” she said.

“The synthetic textile industry is the prime example of an industry that exploits both human labor and the natural world,” and is responsible for a tenth of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, Barr said.

In this episode we talk to Barr and de Long, as well as a handful of people who attended the event to learn about flax. Plus Hemp News Nuggets and upcoming hemp events.
