FAQs

  • The Tasmanian Hemp Association has a robust FAQs section about all things hemp, and you can see that here.

    If you’re interested in staying up-to-date on all things hemp, please sign up for the free eNews produced by the THA and consider becoming a Supporter Member of the association.

    The THA is the reason we have local processing in Tasmania, and is the peak industry body lobbying hard for changes to our outdated legislation. Our founder Andi Lucas currently serves as president and X-Hemp are proud Corporate Members of the THA.

    By becoming a member, you will support that critical industry building work, and will also enjoy discounts on products and services offered by THA Corporate Members.

    These savings include a 10% discount on any courses offered by Australian Hemp Masonry Company and free entry to tours hosted at X-Hemp.

    If you're able to attend the association's annual Community Education Day - a fully catered and licensed held on the first Saturday of March each year - you will have an opportunity to see fully mature hemp plants, tour the factory, and speak to our Founder Andi, other X-Hemp team members and other key industry stakeholders in person.

    If you are a teacher or student, please reach out directly to the THA via email to enquire about the annual Student Education Day that happens on the Friday prior to the CED each year.

  • If you're interested in learning more about hempcrete through further education or hands-on training, we strongly suggest enrolling in either or both the theory and practical workshops run by our key partners at the Australian Hemp Masonry Company.

    We host several of these hands-on sessions at X-Hemp HQ every year. The next practical course is happening on Saturday 2nd March 2024 and you can find the full schedule here.

    If online theory or a full day of hands-on learning is not right for you, we invite you to join us for one of the four Hemp Happy Hour & Factory Tours we run between 3pm-4:30pm at the conclusion of each of the AHMC practical training days.

    So if you're interested in seeing our operation, please RSVP via email to attend that quick 90-minute event. Tours are happening on the dates below and the cost is $10 per person (free for XH shareholders and THA members).

  • Keen to learn what it is like to live in a hempcrete home?

    An opportunity exists for those able to travel to Bruny Island off the south-east coast of Tasmania where X-Hemp founder Andi Lucas built the first two structures using Tasmanian grown-and-processed hemp.

    These luxury accommodation units are available for short-stay rentals, and are a shaowcase for all things hemp, with linens, food, bathroom products, mulch and the mini-bar all being made from this amazing crop.

    All details for Sativa House can be found here and for Indica House here (note that the key difference between these otherwise identical units is the deep soaking bath in Indica House).
