Founded in 2018, the Illinois Hemp Growers Association is a women-led benefit corporation supported by the sponsorship, donations, and dues of over 1,000 grassroots members. The IHGA educates producers and consumers while representing the industry’s best interests in Springfield and throughout Illinois.
Rachel Berry, founder and CEO, stated on the IHGA website, “Our goal is to build the resources and relationships necessary to grow a sustainable and equitable hemp industry. The IHGA achieves its goal through public education, consultation and service, working with legislators and statewide media on the issues, and volunteerism.” The IHGA works to engage state and federal lawmakers and departments. The IHGA also prepares and distributes educational materials to the public and advocates for industrial hemp in the press, as well as provides affordable services to help people save time and make informed decisions.
