The Eleventh Northern Colorado Hemp Exposition and Conference (NoCo Hemp Expo) kicks off on April 10, 2025, in Estes Park, Colo., and runs through April 12, 2025.

This year’s three-day event, dubbed NoCo 11, continues the annual NoCo Hemp Expo series, which began on a small scale with a one-day gathering in 2014 in Winsor, Colo., and has significantly expanded since then to become what the organizers call the world’s “largest and most comprehensive hemp-centric trade show.”

To unshackle farmers from the regulatory burden and legal risk they face with growing industrial hemp, a professor at Texas A&M University (TAMU) aims to create novel hemp plants with a different chemical make-up and distinct physical appearance.

Under this concept, these plants would be devoid of cannabinoids, the chemical substances like cannabidiol (CBD) and delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) normally found in hemp, said Prof. Russell W. Jessup, who oversees TAMU’s hemp-breeding program, in an interview.
