Spilyay Tymoo, Warm Springs, Oregon December 19, 2018 Tribes enter hemp business The Confederated Tribes are starting a hemp growing business, to be located on the Schoenhagen property. The property is a farmland. Tribal Council approved the proposal last week, at the recommendation of Warm Springs Ventures-CP Enterprise. A variety of products can come from hemp. This will be non-recreational cannabis crop. There will be the grow operation, storage unit, and extraction facility. Ventures hosted two community input meetings earlier this month, with a show of support from the membership. Funding to begin the operation will come from the carbon sequestration revenue. The carbon project, a Ventures-Tribal Council endeavor, is expected to bring in several million dollars over the next few years. The new hemp enterprise is smaller version of an initial idea that Ventures developed after the membership approved the referendum three years ago. The plan now is to produce CBD hemp, used in a range of products from medicine to pet food. The CBD products are subject to less stringent regu- lation, compared to recre- ational cannabis. Hemp- CBD contains only a slight trace of THC, the psychoac- tive chemical in recreational marijuana. The 304-acre Schoenhagen property is lo- cated across the river off Highway 26. The land is in trust. A Most Wonderful Time of the Year D.McMechan/Spilyay Flint Scott and other helpers meet at the Youth Center for a day of gift wrapping.
