The Battleground Brewers Guild Hop Project
This is a Co-Op of BBG members who wanted to either grow hops at home or had interest in fresh hops for their home brewing use. As my blog evolved we decided to run a separate Hops farm Blog http://bbghops.blogspot.com/
The early information on the BBG Hops project is at the beginning of this blog (Pls look at Archive)
The BBG is a Home Brewing club in the Triad region of North Carolina , in zone 7b, formed to promote all aspects of Home Beer brewing. We meet monthly and more info can be found on our website www.battlegroundbrewers.com
The Idea of this project is to plant varieties that have been proven or are supposed to grow well in US Ag zone 7 . "Proven" also means anecdotal evidence from members or other beer lovers in the region. We eventually chose 8 varieties.
Each member is a partner in the enterprise, being expected to share equally financially, labor and well as yield in the end.
The land was leased for $1 to us for the project, and equipment use and well water also provided by the land owner.
