The boom in craft-beer brewing locally is spurring a much smaller revival of hop growing here.
Hops were once a major agricultural product in Sonoma County. Now they’re starting to come back, but mostly as a specialty crop for the craft beer market.
There will be a one-day workshop on hop growing this Saturday at SRJC’s Shone Farm in Forestville. Find details about it on the North Bay Report webpage at KRCB dot org/news.
