Brad Lake of Tāpapa Store and the Brothers Green will be sharing his passion for all things hemp. His businesses produce and sell high quality nutritious local food products in an environmentally regenerative way.

Brad is co-founder and managing director of 5 NZ based hemp companies including The Brothers Green and Mainland Hemp, a Hurunui based hemp processing company.

All the business's are founded on developing a sustainable business platform for social change in Agriculture and Nutrition. Brad with his co founders and hemp whanau has spent the past 4 years developing a range of retail brands using NZ hemp as their foundation. These business's have been focused on educating the NZ and International markets around the benefits of NZ hemp and delivering a range of high quality, value added hemp based products. These business platforms have allowed for the establishment of a hemp processing facility in Culverden, North Canterbury as well as ensuring that local farmers had their first taste of growing hemp in varying conditions.
