Nathaniel is an experienced hemp grower and business owner involved in the development of innovative products and developing market opportunities.
His role in the BHA is coordinating research projects, including the Innovative Farmer x BHA field lab in which farmer members within the Alliance are actively measuring and monitoring the effect of hemp cultivation on soil health, carbon sequestration and biodiversity.
