On this week\\u2019s podcast, we take a trip to the Mill Creek in rural Leacock Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania., where the Zook family just pulled an old millstone out of the creek. But it wasn\\u2019t just any old millstone \\u2014 it was a hempstone.

On this episode, we find out what a hempstone is, why it was in the creek, and how the Zooks managed to get it out of the creekbed where it\\u2019s sat undisturbed for nearly 2 centuries.

Plus, hemp historian Les Stark shares his expert perspective on the stone, how much it weighs and why he thinks it\\u2019s older than some other hemp stones he\\u2019s found.
