Participant Guidelines and Agreements
*By registering for the workshop, you verify that you are 21 years old or up, and have read, understand and agree to these guidelines, or requirements where they apply.

- In the Grow it! Workshops, you'll learn how to grow high-grade hemp flowers for CBD.
- The workshop is geared for the experienced home vegetable gardener. If you are happy growing tomatoes, lettuce, corn or beans, YOU TOO can grow stunning chemical-free cannabis/hemp plants. No prior experience growing cannabis/hemp is necessary.
- This is Vermont, these are outdoor plants, and soil types and weather vary widely. A lot can happen and change from May to late September when your plants are in the ground. I do my very best to give you everything you need, still there is no guarantee of a harvest. Results will vary year to year.

- Hemp legal status: If you want to grow your own hemp for CBD, Cannabis sativa with </= 0.3% THC is now a legal, and regulated crop in the US and in Vermont.
- You must be registered with the Vermont Agency of Agriculture's Hemp Registry Program to legally grow hemp. It's $25 to register. CLICK HERE to view the Vermont application.
- Cannabis (marijuana) legal status: So we're all on the same page, adults 21 years and up, if you own your own home, it is legal for each Vermont household to grow 2 mature cannabis plants, and up to 4 "immature" plants.
- If you don’t own the property, you’d have to get the property owner’s permission before cultivating cannabis. Cannabis possession and cultivation is still illegal at the federal level.
- Want to read the Vermont law that legalized cannabis (marijuana) for adult use, CLICK HERE. Just want the summary? -> CLICK HERE.
- Grow It! Workshops are for informational and educational use. It is your responsibility to know the Vermont and federal laws and accept any risks associated with cultivation, possession or use of legal cannabis in Vermont.
- You must be 21 years or up to participate in the Grow It! Workshops. You must bring ID if you're 30 years or younger.

I'm excited to be able to present this educational opportunity!
