hempseeds

Nutritious bird food source

Hempseeds are the edible seeds of the hemp plant, valued for their nutritional content—high in protein, omega fatty acids, and fiber.

They have a mild, nutty flavor and appear whole, hulled (hemp hearts), or processed into oil and protein powder: She sprinkled hempseeds on her smoothie bowl.

Despite coming from cannabis, hempseeds contain negligible THC.
