About iHemp NSW

By bringing together the industry’s most experienced growers and partners, we are able to share knowledge with newcomers to the hemp landscape and foster a community of support.

Together, we are identifying opportunities to optimise sustainable crops and utilise the vast range of uses for the world’s most versatile super plant.

iHemp NSW and our affiliation with the Australian Hemp Council (AHC)

The AHC was established in August 2020 as an Incorporated Association registered in South Australia. The AHC was conceived to comprise seven member associations representing the hemp industry in each state and the NT. Each member association appoints a Councillor to join the AHC.

The seven Councilors constitute the Management Committee of the AHC Association and have full control over the affairs of the AHC.

The AHC also has a provision for Affiliate Membership without voting rights. The AHC may establish subcommittees and other working groups to assist in the pursuit of its objectives. While the AHC seeks to present a unified voice to government and national agencies, the state member associations remain fully autonomous, and the AHC does not exercise any

control over its members’ internal affairs.

IHemp NSW Membership is now open for 2025-2026. We have three membership categories – and warmly welcome new members.

If you have any questions, we are here to help – simply reach out!
