A tampon insertion device for insertion of a tampon, comprising: a barrel constructed of hemp plastic material comprising at least one biodegradable polymer and a plurality of hemp fibers, said barrel having an insertion end portion and a proximal end portion opposite said insertion end portion and having a continuous side wall extending therebetween that defines an interior area; a tampon initially positioned in said interior area of said barrel; a plunger consisting of hemp plastic material comprising at least one biodegradable polymer and a plurality of hemp fibers, said plunger being operably coupled to said barrel and having a first end engaging a proximal end of said tampon, said plunger having a cylindrical configuration selectively slidable from a starter configuration extending away from the proximal end portion of the barrel to a deployed configuration positioned inside the barrel; wherein pressure applied to said plunger causes said plunger to urge said tampon downstream within said interior area of said barrel.
