The hemp for our makasol products

We source the hemp we use for our natural Inner Strength tea blend from the "Hanfland" community, which has set itself the task of (re)establishing hemp in Austria and promoting it as a healthy food.

The Hanfland team cultivates experimental fields for industrial hemp, also known as edible hemp, in the Hanfthal region of the Weinviertel region to create optimal growing and harvesting conditions. The Hanfland team maintains close ties with Austrian hemp farmers and sources most of the required leaves and seeds from them. The industrial hemp is cultivated by the farmers in close cooperation with the Hanfland team, using the highest organic quality, respecting the soil, and in harmony with nature. This ensures high and consistent quality.

The harvest time for the hemp leaves is June, while the seeds, which also have a wide range of applications - be it for high-quality oils, healthy snacks or natural cosmetics - are harvested in August.

Industrial hemp has a very low content of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), therefore it has no intoxicating effect and is completely legally available on the market.
