Grapes and Hops - Part 2 Specialty Crop Series

Grapes are not only for fresh eating; with a little help they turn into juice, jams, jellies and wine. Hops flavor beer. Both can be grown successfully in northern Illinois and other parts of the country. This presentation will cover selection, planting, trellising and after care of both the grape vines and the hop bines concentrating on Illinois varieties for the grapes.
