How To Grow Hops
We have a 3/4 acre hop yard on our farm. We manage our hop yard organically though we are not certified organic. We mainly sell our hops through our on farm brewery, which is a crucial aspect in our decision to grow hops.

My Favorite Hops Resource
When people ask me for advice on growing hops I often respond with the fact that anything I tell them is going to be a regurgitation of the information put out by the University of Vermont UVM Hops Project.
Seriously, I'm posting this link instead of a big long list of my own because they already have everything.
