As our name suggests, we have recently completed the construction and planting phases of the hop-yard here at Karridale Cottages. We have planted a variety of hop rhizomes sourced from different growers throughout the southwest including standout varieties such as Cascade, Perle, Chinook, Nugget, Cluster, Goldings and the noble Hallertau.

We will be trialing different planting methods including plant-based propagation, which is proving successful in the US. Rhizome propagation will also be utilized in the near future as our hop-yard continues to mature.
