CFAES’s research arm, OARDC, is holding a Hops Production Workshop Feb. 13 in Wooster. Among the topics will be trellis design, potential income, pests and diseases, and making sure the variety you plant is one a brewer wants. Says CFAES’s Brad Bergefurd, one of the event’s organizers: “Different brewers use different hops varieties for their craft beers, (so) it’s important for growers to know the market in terms of the varieties that brewers need before growers invest in their first rhizomes.” Register by Jan. 31.
