It’s been an extremely busy past few weeks harvesting about 75% of my hop crop this year. Luckily, my parents graciously agreed to help me hand pick the hop cones off of the bines since my harvester is still not working as efficiently as I’d like it to. Since I now need to start harvesting my grapes, and start working on other beer-related tasks, I plan to have the majority of the remaining bines custom-harvested by another hop grower that has invested in a much more effective machine.
