Nathan Hall played with his dog, Sally, on a plot of land that he and his business partner, Todd Howard, rent to farm hemp in Mallie, Kentucky. @mikebelleme photographed Nathan, a @yale MBA student, for a story about out-of-work Kentuckians who are increasingly turning to farming in place of coal. Nearly 13,000 coal jobs have disappeared in Kentucky since President @Barack Obama took office. While Democrats and Republicans remain locked in a feud over whether the aggressive environmental regulations amount to a “war on coal,” people across central #Appalachia are looking beyond politics to answer a weighty question: What comes after coal? For Nathan and Todd, it’s hemp. A couple of years ago, Congress lifted a ban on farming of industrial hemp in certain states, including Kentucky, which first cultivated the plant in 1775. Today, the 2 business partners are growing hemp on 6 different sites. And they have big dreams to scale up.
