Time 4 Hemp Talk

The Reefer Roasters Story

This lively episode of Time 4 Hemp puts a spotlight on the unforgettable 'Reefer Roasters' project. In this 1994 event, a group of hemp activists fed chickens hemp seed and shocked even federal inspectors with the healthiest meat they’d ever seen. From farm fields in Iowa to a police barbecue in Washington, D.C., this story blends humor, history, and powerful advocacy for industrial hemp. Along the way, we highlight some of the pioneers who helped shape today’s global hemp industry and explore how hemp-fed livestock could transform food, farming, and the hemp markets of tomorrow. Tune in for a mix of laughs, legacy, and inspiration. It’s hemp history you won’t want to miss!

I got involved in the Hemp Movement in 1989 when I was hired by Jack Herer to run hiss office. I launched the cable television series ‘TIME 4 HEMP’ on January 5, 1991. Time 4 Hemp is the first TV series in the history of broadcasting to focus strictly on the topic of cannabis. This has given me the dubious honor of being ‘The Father Of Marijuana Television’.
