It’s been a busy week on the farm.  After nearly 10 months of waiting and searching we hired a new farmhand.  We hired him on 7/25 a little early in the morning but at this point we weren’t complaining.  We needed the extra help as things are getting real busy on the farm.  Final prep […]

I hope next week to be renting  machinery to dig the holes for […]

Well, where to get started!  The idea of the farm came when my mother-in-law found wild Hops growing on her property!  This gave me the idea of starting a small Hops Farm!  I was then on a quest to find as much information and knowledge to get started.  It was about an 8 month process […]
