Discover The Hemplands | Ashland, The Henry Clay Estate

Stop by the historic home of Henry Clay to see the progress of this year’s hemp plot facilitated by our parent company, United Hemp Industries, in collaboration with the University of Kentucky and Schiavi Seeds LLC. Henry Clay was one of the most influential hemp pioneers of his time. He used his legislative influence to protect and advance the industry, and utilized his own land to grow and experiment with the crop. Click here to learn more about Clay and how he earned the occasional nickname, “The Prince of Hemp.” Last year we facilitated the first hemp crop at Ashland in over 130 years. This year, we look forward to incorporating this crop and site into the Heritage Hemp Trail.
