Jugnmaven

Our mission is to raise awareness about the many uses of hemp, and why its regenerative qualities make it a desirable alternative to finite, natural resources that are less healthy for the environment. Fashion is a form of activism: what we choose to wear says both who we are and what we stand for. Making beautiful, high-quality hemp clothing is our way of creating a medium through which we can all demand change with our dollars and express what kind of future we want to live in.

Solution
Jungmaven launched HEMP 2020 a decade ago to raise awareness around the positive environmental impacts of hemp farming and to get hemp legal to grow again in the US. We’ve made major progress, and are seeing hemp become widely recognized for its benefits. As we look forward into the next decade, we face a critical moment in the history of our planet. Let’s build a future where people and the planet exist in a mutually beneficial state, recognizing that we are all ONE.

Advocacy
Robert Jungmann, Jungmaven founder, is a founding member of the Hemp Industries Association– a group formed in 1994 and instrumental in the legalization of industrial hemp. Their work directly led to the passing of the 2018 Farm Bill which was a giant win for hemp– making it legal to grow again in the United States for the first time since 1937. This step was a new beginning for hemp, and while the US hemp industry is now headed in a good direction–it isn’t yet producing enough to meet production demands for our garments.
