Title: An Taisce Hops Growing Workshop – Sat 30th April 12pm
Post by: fobster on March 16, 2016, 09:16:28 AM
I'm on an email list for various events done by An Taisce at their Bridgefoot Street Community garden. Hops are up at the end of April!

As per the email...
"A talk about Hop growing, along with a workshop and demonstration of both Hop seed sowing, and the planting out of Hop Rhizome's. Hops are hardy perennial plants that are easily grown at home. As grape vines are to wine, then so are Hops to beer! A great reason to consider their introduction to community gardens, and this is before we get to their interesting herbal properties."

People often put them under their pillows to help sleep, like lavender.
