Sunhemp Benefit Concert Series to rebuild the hemp store that burned down on New Years Day.
The Sunhemp Store burned down. Sunhemp has been seen everywhere from Farm Aid, Phish Shows, Bonnaroo, Camp Creek and even the Clearwater. Sunhemp is now throwing a Benefit Concert Series.
On New Years Day, the Sunhemp Store in Manchester, Ct. burned down after being in this location for 3 years. Sunhemp has been selling hemp and natural products for about 10 years at many local, regional and national events.
Sunhemp was asked by Phish to be the only hemp vendor at the 1999 New Years Eve show at Big Cypress after which he opened a store in Manchester, CT. Sunhemp took part in everything from agricultural fairs, as well as FARM AID, and big festivals, from Bonnaroo to Camp Creek with Maxcreek.
Several bands heard about the fire and wanted to get a Benefit Concert Series going to help rebuild Sunhemp. Sunhemp's owner was so happy to hear this, and with the suport of Munroe Music, have booked the first in a series of events at the Powder Mill Barn in Enfield, CT. April 26 at 8 PM.
Sunhemp being in the concert world for several years has become known by many bands. This first show is a few great local acts. "The Feed", "The Silent Groove" and "Midnight Jamboree" will be performing at the first show at the Powder Mill Barn. Sunhemp is looking into larger venues and bands to do a larger benefit in the future. For details please contact benefit@sunhemp.com.
