Hop Harvest
Today, I harvested my cascade hops. I filled up half of a five gallon bucket. I left a bunch of cones still on the branch that weren't quite ready. This is a BIG improvement over last year harvest (See Photo). The Nugget and Mount Hood will need some more time before I can harvest them.

Hops are poisonous to dogs, so Brewer hung out under a tree.
