Joe Arnone cares for a hemp plant at his parents’ farm on Monday, Sept. 10. Arnone has looked into the health benefits associated with different parts of the hemp plant and decided to begin growing them locally. The plants are small this year, partly because they were planted late. Arnone said this year is a learning year for him and his family. (Brenda Ahearn photos/Daily Inter Lake)
