Nutiva Organic Shelled Hempseed Nutiva Organic Shelled Hempseed certified organic seeds are grown without any chemical pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers. Because Nutiva cannot legally grow hemp in the United States, we must reply on Canadian farmers to produce our hemp crops. Shortages of organic seeds often occur due to weather or because surging sales outstrip supply.
