I not gonna use them. If someone wants to come pick them they're yours. In Cole Harbour.

Hmm no takers yet? I’m in Lawrencetown and I wouldn’t want them to go not used. I’ll pick them and if anyone wants them I’ll share.

Never used fresh hops but I wouldn't mind trying. I am in Jeddore.

I picked and used them all one year (thanks, Tim!). They were good but not quite enough for a double batch.

Ok , they are picked, thanks Tim for permitting me to harvest. Apparently I don't get a rash when picking them but my wife does lol... I will prep them and then try to use them over the next few weeks. I hope to have some to share, I picked probably 10 litres of them in total. Not sure how much weight wise they make when dried but I definitely think I will be growing some next year.

Lol yeah my arms are pretty red and itchy.

Hope they work out and make great beer.

So I've got a friend giving me a lb of fresh cascade this weekend, but I have no time to brew this weekend... so how do you guys store fresh hops? Or do you at all? Ideally, they'd go right into some wort... but could I freeze them? I could possibly squeeze in a brew day the following weekend, but even that isn't a guarantee...

put them in a zip lock bag and remove as much air as possible then just store them in the freezer until you can brew.
