Now in production, BRINGING IT HOME follows Anthony Brenner’s mission,inspired by his young daughter with multiple chemical sensitivities, to build the healthiest homes. His quest leads him to build “America’s First Hemp House” in Asheville, NC, using hempcrete which must be imported. Industrial hemp walls are breathable, carbon-negative, non-toxic, mold-pest and flame-resistant, and can help cut energy bills in half. The one drawback–the U.S. prohibits farming industrial hemp, the non-psychoactive cannabis sativa plant that 31 other nations grow. As a sustainable building material, industrial hemp farming could create 1,000’s of jobs in the U.S. and make healthy homes affordable for all. Help us make the documentary that will get everyone asking “why aren’t we growing it here?”
