According to CTV, Betchuck has seen people get out of their cars to grab handfuls of the leafy plants and then drive off again.

Hemp may look similar to marijuana, but it will not give you any kind of high.

Betchuck's field is quite popular among locals, but please be respectful of their hard work and take photos, not leaves.
