About Us
Made In Hemp began with a very personal introduction to hemp seed oil and a simple question: what else can this plant do?
That question has taken our family from skincare and market stalls to retail stores, manufacturing, hemp foods, education and eventually growing industrial hemp ourselves.
We're still based on the NSW Central Coast, still family run, and still genuinely excited when someone walks through the door wanting to know more about hemp.
It has always been personal
Made In Hemp's story began in 2004 after founder Darius Dunn saw the difference hemp seed oil made to his son's eczema. What started as curiosity quickly became a much bigger interest in the plant and its possibilities.
From there came skincare, markets, clothing, foods, stores, manufacturing, farming — and a fairly serious obsession with what hemp can become.
There have been plenty of changes along the way, but the idea underneath it hasn't really changed: find good hemp products, make good things ourselves, keep learning and share what we know.
From markets to Made In Hemp
It wasn't exactly a straight line. There were market stalls, vans, trailers, store openings, experiments, long days — and a lot of conversations about hemp along the way.
Markets & marquees
Before there were stores, Made In Hemp went where the customers were — markets, events and anywhere we could introduce people to hemp in person.
A shop on wheels
The setup became a little more serious, but the idea stayed the same: put hemp products in front of people and let them see, feel and ask questions.
Long Jetty opens
Opening Long Jetty gave Made In Hemp a permanent home on the Central Coast and a place where customers could properly explore the range.
More than a shop
Long Jetty grew into our headquarters, warehouse and production home — the place where much of Made In Hemp still happens today.
Hemp is a pretty big umbrella
That's one of the reasons we've stuck with it. Our work now touches many different parts of the plant and the industry.
We Make
Our Made In Hemp skincare range is produced at Long Jetty, including balms, creams, body butters, face oils, soaps and more.
We Grow
We're licensed industrial hemp growers, giving us hands-on experience with the plant beyond the finished products sitting on our shelves.
We Retail
From hemp and bamboo clothing to food, skincare, bedding and homewares, our stores are places where customers can experience hemp in real life.
We Learn
Hemp keeps changing — fabrics, growing techniques, formulations, regulations and uses. After all these years, we're still learning too.
We Share
We love helping people understand hemp, whether the question is about clothing, nutrition, skincare, farming, extracts or the wider industry.
We Connect
Over the years we've worked with growers, manufacturers, suppliers, brands and customers across Australia and beyond.
We finally got to grow it ourselves
After years of working with hemp products, becoming licensed industrial hemp growers gave us the opportunity to understand another part of the story firsthand.
It's also part of where we're heading next — exploring how Australian-grown hemp, seed oils and botanicals can become more closely connected to the products we make.
And yes, if you visit us and want to talk farming, extracts or cannabinoids, you may be there a while.
