Should you restructure your hemp business before the ban hits?
The federal hemp deadline is getting closer and businesses need to be preparing now. Under current law, major changes to the federal definition of hemp are set to take effect November 11, with a possible delay to December 11 if the House approves the Senate’s continuing resolution. So what does that actually mean for hemp businesses trying to stay in the market?
In this episode, I break down what we know, what remains uncertain, and the practical steps business owners should be thinking through now if they want to keep moving forward. If you’re in the hemp industry, this is one to watch.

NC Hemp’s Close Call: A Post-Mortem on HB 328
HB 328 was a very close call for one of the most vibrant hemp markets in the country. North Carolina's hemp industry was almost shut down. But, businesses, farmers, consumers, and advocates got informed, got organized, went to Raleigh, and made their voices heard.
This round, it made a difference. The bill was tabled. But I don’t think the takeaway should be, “Great, crisis over.”
We need to talk about what happened. What worked. How close this came. And why anyone whose livelihood depends on this industry needs to understand the legislative process.
Consider this our post-mortem.
Protecting a strong, responsible hemp industry means more than paying attention when there’s an emergency. It means showing up, staying informed, and being part of the conversation. And I have some things to tell you, some behind the scenes details of hemp bills in NC. Let's dive into these details.
