Celebrate the Barley Harvest at Rogue Farms
TYGH VALLEY, OR – Join us as we kick off the 2015 Rogue Farms Harvest Season. After months of growing and ripening in the brilliant sunshine of the Tygh Valley Appellation our 100 acres of Risk™ malting barley are ready to be reaped, threshed and winnowed.
At Rogue, we can’t think of a better reason to celebrate. For the first time, we’re opening the gates of Rogue Farms in Tygh Valley to the public so all of our friends can join us for a Harvest Celebration! If you’ve been to Rogue Farms in Independence, Oregon, you’ve seen how we grow hops. Now join us in Tygh Valley and see how we grow our own malting barley.
The harvest of Risk™ malting barley is just the beginning of a four month harvest season at Rogue Farms in Independence and Tygh Valley, Oregon. Join us as we combine, pick, strip, sort, separate, kiln and bale. The harvest this year will include: seven varieties of hops, two varieties of malting barley, Dream Pumpkins, Dream Rye, McKercher Wheat, Prickless Marionberries, jalapeños, botanicals and honey from the 7,140,289 Rogue Farms honeybees. Each of these ingredients is destined to be mashed, brewed and distilled into a Rogue beer, spirit, cider or soda. Grow the Revolution!
