Most builders order their materials. We grow ours. 🚜
These Illinois h**p bales are waiting to be processed, and the hurd, the woody core of the stalk, will become h**pcrete walls for healthy, energy-efficient homes.

As more businesses turn to AI and automation to reduce their workforce, I Grow Homes, LLC. is choosing a different path: creating meaningful opportunities for people.

We believe industrial h**p can help build a stronger American economy from the ground up—supporting farmers, creating skilled manufacturing and construction jobs, building healthier homes, and producing sustainable food and materials.

Technology will continue to reshape our world, but people and communities must remain at the center of our progress.

People first. Community always. Let’s grow something better together.
