Bushels for brewing

Published: September 07. 2012 4:00AM PST

The Jansons, Wyatt, and Wyatt's wife, Susan, grow several varieties of hops and sell them through their company — Tumalo Hops Co. LLC. Most of the company's customers are home brewers.

Harvesting began Saturday and will continue for another few days. The Wyatts and the Jansons expect to harvest about 800 pounds of hops. The company has seen increased yields every year since it was founded six years ago.
