Deadline to order hop rhizomes for spring planting is this Sunday, February, 28th! Fresh hop cones are beloved by home brewers, and flowering hop vines are beautiful, both as growing plants and dried flowers. We expect to receive the rhizomes in early-mid March (depending on weather/growing conditions). Our hop rhizomes are grown pesticide- and herbicide-free in North Carolina. Cascade and Zeus rhizomes are available. Call or come by the store to order yours soon!!!

Glass demijohns are great for storing wine, kombucha, large batches of beer, vinegar, or whatever you'd like to brew up! Glass is often the material of choice for demijohns, as plastic can scratch, hold flavors and aromas, and harbor bacteria if scratched.
We only have sporadic access to Glass Demijohns, and the 14 gallon (54 L) size is especially scarce. We're excited to be able to offer everyone an opportunity to secure these hard to come by fermentors, by taking pre-orders for them through March 31st. Cost is $104.99. You can pre-order online at our web store, or call or come by the store to order yours today!
