| Small Scale & Organic Hops Production manual | |||
With the assistance of BC Investment Agriculture, we have created a hops growing manual for small-scale and organic producers. This is a basic manual, including extensive cultivation information as well as tips on how to build and design hops trellising, home dryers, and packaging for market. This manual is available for free for individual users, thanks to generous funding by Investment Agriculture Foundation. It is copyrighted, and reproduction is a violation of copyright. If you would like a hard copy of the manual, or multiple copies, please contact us directly. Download the Small-Scale & Organic Hops Production Manual. This requires Acrobat Reader 4, a free program which is readily available. The manual can also be found through the COABC website. |

Hops Rhizomes Hops sales are closed for 2011 Hops sales for 2012 will open in late January/early February 2012. We do not take orders in advance of this time. Left Fields sells hops rhizomes only, not hop cones or pelleted hops. Please see the list below of hops that were available in 2011. This is NOT a guarantee that the same varieties will be available in 2012. All organic varieties will be available, however the non-organic varieties vary from year to year. We will have an updated list available as soon as humanly possible. Not all growers can provide rhizomes every year, as they renew their own yards first, and production of rhizomes does vary from year to year. This means that availability will also vary. BC hops are dug after US hops, as our latitude means that the snow is often not off our fields when the US hops are being dug. If you require early rhizomes, please feel free to shop directly from Freshops in Oregon.
