interesting note:
An old country hemp stock was found in Ilomantsi As early as the beginning of the 20th century, hemp was widely cultivated in Finland, always later than southern Lapland. A variety of local varieties, country eggs, were abundant in all sorts of crops on offer. When hemp cultivation virtually ceased in the 1960s, old varieties began to disappear. One variety was rescued together in a Nordic gene bank in the 70s, but that too was destroyed in storage. Northern Sun - Boreal Seedbank, a northern seed banking company that started operations in Ilomantsi, got a hint from the local old hemp fiber stock, and after a small rummage, hemp inflorescences were found there, which were also high in seeds. The discovery was made on the Kuikanniemi farm from the ors of Väinö Leppänen's barn. -The purpose is to collect all the seeds from the straw and try to get it, says Hannu Hyvönen. -We contact the University of Eastern Finland and hope that help was found there in the study of ancient seeds. In addition to genetic information, oral genetic and hemp delivery tools, textiles, and photographs are of interest. The hemp development company Hamppusampo Oy is best looking for a well-established Finnish hemp museum. -Gathering the hemp-related tradition for the most important task, which can also be of market value. In the midst of the global hemp boom, it is important to highlight how hemp has been grown in Finland for hundreds, perhaps thousands of years. We have generations of roots in hemp cultivation and utilization.
