Hempstead is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating public events and concerts that are pro-hemp in their focus.

This summer's tour with Toots and the Maytals, Dubtonic Kru, Nikii Davis, Rhythm Culture, and John Trudell and Baddog will directly benefit the Oregon Cannabis Tax Act 2012 and Hempstalk 2011.

Tour dates include: Eugene, Oregon on Saturday, July 2nd at the Lane Co. Fairground; Redmond/Bend on Sunday, July 3rd at the Deschutes Co. Fairground; Portland on Monday, the 4th of July at the Washington Park Rose Garden Amphitheatre.

Hempstead and Happy Hempy Productions are organizing these benefits on behalf of the Oregon Cannabis Tax Act 2012, an Oregon initiative petition campaign to restore hemp, and for the Portland Hempstalk Festival, an annual free festival at Portland's Kelley Point Park on the second weekend of September.
