If you want to get a feel for what your bottom price will be, check out Lupulin Exchange. Its basically a open market where you can buy or sell hops in whatever quantities you want (or can find). You can sort based on variety and price. Assuming you don't find any local buyers, this is the place to go.
Before you ask, yes there should be a premium for your hops because they are local but only if they are at least the same quality as the hops they can get from a large merchant and in a form that is useful (i.e. pellets for most).
Thanks for this! I have been looking around for this as I am contemplating starting a hops growing operation in Central Ohio to diversify my current farming operations and was having a little difficulty determining actual market values.
