About the museum

Who we are

The Hemp Museum is an independent online museum of the history, science, industry and culture of hemp and cannabis — the first of its kind in Israel. The whole collection and the research library are online. We are an educational institution: we sell no products and carry no product advertising.

Hemp in three tenses

The museum tells one story across three stretches of time. Each opens onto what we actually hold and have verified.

How we work

Five rules decide what gets in and how it is described. They are set out in full in the educational standards.

• •Academic leadership
• •Cultural respect
• •The full history
• •Scientific honesty
• •An intentional collection

The people behind it

The museum is small and says who stands behind it. Every exhibit, every figure and every article passes through the people on that page.
