How do you recover an art and craft that has been lost to history?

 

After almost a century of laws prohibiting the propagation and use of all kinds of cannabis products, including hemp, generations of institutional knowledge have been lost.

 

Today’s producers are having to rediscover and relearn old techniques, or reinvent the wheel with new technology.

 

Andrew Bish is the COO of Bish Enterprises and the CEO of Hemp Harvest Works, and he is at the forefront of this exciting work.

 

His companies have been inventing large-scale hemp harvesting equipment to help resolve some existing bottlenecks in terms of separation of flour from stalk.

 

He also wants to keep people safe while still delivering a high quality result at a considerably faster pace.

 

He has exciting ideas for small growers and large.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
