Bodley
Dr. Roger Bodley is an English medical graduate who came to Tasmania in 1976 and worked there for 6 years before returning to train as a radiologist. Worked in Oxford and Stoke Mandeville Hospital (which includes the National Spinal Injuries Centre, home of The Paralympics) and after retirement from the NHS returned part time to the beautiful NW Coast of Tasmania to work, teach and to build a home on Table Cape. Having come across Hempcrete at the London exhibition "Ecobuild" in 2008 I decided that my house was to be a showcase for this exciting material. The last few years have seen the slow realisation of that idea.

Adam Wong, 27, is from Salt Lake City, UT. His passion for hemp stemmed after high school when he researched into the sustainability of the crop and all of its industrial applications. He began selling hemp products (SLChemp)in local markets and online and has now opened a retail location in his hometown of Salt Lake City. Adam has engulfed himself in industrial hemp; eating it, wearing it, and talking about it daily. He has a drive to grow this industry and help educate others about the opportunities this plant has to offer, both environmentally and economically. He is continuing to pursue his degree in Entrepreneurship from the University of Utah.

Adam lives an active lifestyle and enjoys everything outdoors, from Hiking in Utah’s back country and national parks, to climbing/repelling down cliffs in the Cottonwood Canyons. He especially loves the winter months as he has become an avid snowboarder growing up in Utah.
