Thanks again to everyone who came out to lend a hand at the Harvest Fest! It was the biggest yield to date and we're excited to see what next year will bring! 'Till then - Cheers!

Loaded up with hops for a wet hopped brew at Nevins Brewing Co!

We had a great weekend of harvesting hops out at the farm. We ended up with almost 250 lbs total of fresh wet hops!

Fresh Mt. Hood harvested this morning. We'll be harvesting Cascade and Chinook tomorrow morning. Let us know if you're interested in some fresh wet hops for your brews tomorrow!

Long morning out at the farm working on the hops. They are looking great and growing like crazy! Some of the Chinooks are already well over 8'-10' tall.

We were out the other day running cable and will be stringing all the hops tomorrow. The hops are loving this warm weather! It won't be long before we start seeing hop burs!

The hops are coming up in full force. Time to prune back and and gear up for strong spring growth. Spending time this morning getting the yard prepped.

Last call for hop rhizome pre-orders!!

Heading to the hop yard today to spread some more spent brewing grain. Should start to see hops popping through the ground any day now with this warm weather.

Spent some time at the hop yard today getting it prepped for spring! Straightened out some mulch piles and spread some spent grain around the hops - All natural fertilizer. We can't wait for spring to come!

With this warm weather the hops are going to start popping through the ground sooner than later!!

Make sure to check out Chicago Brew Werks in Plainfield. Look for Northbound Hop Yard hops there for sale after the 2012 harvest!!
