Hemp seeds from wild hemp?
August 8, 2015 1:00 PM Subscribe
I live in a rural area, and there are several large hemp ('ditch weed') plants that are loaded with seeds. I've heard they can be a good source of protein, Omega-6 and Omega-3 fats, fiber, etc. My question is-- can I simply pick the seeds from the plants and consume them (on a salad or mixed with yogurt), or do they need to be processed in any way? (BTW-- they are in an area where there's no danger of pesticides or herbicides; they are about as 'organic' as you can get). Thanks!
Be aware that possession of viable hemp seeds may or may not be legal in your jurisdiction.
