New York has released new guidelines for how hemp and CBD products will be cultivated, processed and sold.

Also, a scallop die-off on Long Island may receive help from the federal government. And the burgeoning kelp industry in Connecticut might be a bust. Our guests: David Falkowski, owner, Open Minded Organics Stephen Tettelbach, Ph.D., shellfish ecologist, and Kim Tetreault, community aquaculture specialist, Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County Anoushka Concepcion, assistant aquaculture extension educator-in-residence, Connecticut Sea Grant and UConn Extension Program Bren Smith, executive director and co-founder, Greenwave , and owner, Thimble Island Ocean Farm
