Sarah Caldwell is a disabled mother and a Boise native. Caldwell said her year and a half with Compassionate Idaho is the first time she has considered herself an activist. “We talk about going green by stopping using chemicals and things that don’t have the ability to be reused and recycled,” Caldwell said. “This plant is so resilient that it could save our rainforest, as well as protecting our planet by producing oil and biofuels instead of tearing up our earth looking fur fuels that cause pollution. With using hemp it grows up out of the ground and is replenishable, and it also renews the soil, making it richer.”- The Boise Weekly
