In order to avoid things such as the hop shortage, I am going to grow my own hops. I have ordered 24 rhizomes, and have plenty of room for the growing. But to get the variety I need for my own use, I will have so many plants, and will have extra hops.
Seems a shame to just compost them. I'd like to sell for a very reasonable price, As it will take some time/effort to dry/package. But don't even know how, what where or such. Do I need some kind of license? Can I just sell on a board like this? Is there even a market for someone's backyard hop crop?
First batch will be ready this fall, so I'm really in no rush. Just trying to plan ahead.
Does anybody have a clue of how I should proceed???
