Hemp Embassy Headlines Issue 540 December 30 2022

From the Editor,

Dear Friends and Family of the Hemp Embassy Headlines,

First off I’d like to introduce myself, My name is Ben Hartley.
I took over the Hemp Headlines from Kath in October this year.

It’s been an exciting opportunity to redevelop the headlines and myself in this time.
I look forward to continually bringing you the best of Cannabis and Hemp News from around the planet each week.

I have extensive interest in Legalise Australia and our state parties and have been assisting them in any capacity I can.

The Hemp Headlines is always on the lookout for new content or better ways to communicate.
If you have a great idea, send it through to us.

I wish you all the best for the coming year in 2023.

May your bowl be filled and our plant be freed.

#freetheweedBen.
