For this year’s Earth Month and their 20th brand birthday, Jungmaven wanted to do more than just post a tree emoji. Celebrating two decades of hemp-powered impact, I, together with ilovecreatives Studio, worked with them to tap into their roots—comfort, consciousness, identity, and timelessness—to inspire a deeper cultural shift. The result? A playful, purpose-driven campaign that invited people to Get On Grass 🌱.

Here’s the concept: It’s good for you to touch some grass. Grounding, calming, and connected to something bigger. But when you can’t escape to nature? Wearing Jungmaven’s hemp clothing is a daily way to get on grass—even if you’re stuck in traffic, in a meeting, or in line at the store. We built a layered campaign that celebrated both nature and hemp culture, encouraging people to find joy in small, wearable acts of sustainability. From NY to LA, screen to sidewalk, the campaign encouraged people to ground themselves—literally and figuratively.
