I know, I know they're not in season. But I have been trying to find a site that allows you to preorder for spring and although many say you can none seem to actually take the pre-orders. Does anyone know of a site that takes preorders??
Yes, I'm that impatient . . .

freshops.com is a pretty small operation...I imagine he'd take your money...or morebeer?
I got mine from freshops last year...good quality, and GREAT quality whole hops.
Cheers!

Dave, at freshhops, likes pre-orders. Helps him in his planning and pre-orders get sent out first, so you get the most growing time. He hasn't updated the page for 2006 yet, but that shouldn't be a problem. I don't believe he charges your card until they ship. I'll just drive over and bug him in March.

Pellets are for bb guns

My wife goes to this local organic herb and tea shop, and got to be friends with the owner. She found out that that owner can get me organic whole Cascade for 6.90/LB. I have not yet shopped for whole hops, but I have used a fair amount of Cascade- does this sound good?

That's just a little cheaper than HopsDirect, so yeah it's a good price.
