Hop Farms

US hop farms grouped by state, with the varieties each publishes. A farm reaches the medal beers in two separate ways: through the hops it grows, and by name when a brewery published the farm.

What Is Not Known

Each row names a question the sources checked could not answer, so a missing farm or variety is a gap and not a no.

Citra Mosaic Simcoe Loral Sabro Talus Ekuanot Pahto licensed growersproprietary varietyYakima Chief Ranches publishes a roster of the 41 farms it works with (Washington 22, Idaho 7, Oregon 12; 43 farms in a March 2023 snapshot) and says it manages Simcoe, Citra, Mosaic and Loral through Footprints and supplies true-to-type rootstock. The roster is not broken down by variety, so no per variety licensed grower list exists on any page read. The brands page lists Ahtanum, Citra, Dolcita, Ekuanot, HBC 682, Idaho 7, Krush, Loral, Mosaic, Palisade, Sabro, Simcoe, Talus and Warrior. Yakima Chief Ranches is owned by Perrault Farms, Loftus Ranches and Carpenter Ranches. The only farm level variety data point is Simcoe at Perrault Farms in 2017 (search summary). CLS Farms and Roy Farms: CLS is not on the Yakima Chief Ranches roster and Roy Farms is; no page read states Hop Breeding Company membership for CLS, Carpenter, Perrault or Roy.web.archive.org

Yakima Chief Hops grower pagessource partly archivedThe live yakimachief.com returns a bot challenge and was not worked around. Public archive copies were read instead: the October 2026 growers page lists 14 grower-owners with owner names, the April 2026 meet the growers page lists 14 including Brulotte Farms and carries the Coleman Agriculture profile, and the Yakima Chief Ranches page lists the product lines. The individual farm pages for the other 13 growers were never archived, so their founding years, acreage and varieties remain unsourced, and the Cryo processing facility location is not stated.web.archive.org

Grower totals and enumerationcoverageNo source gives a complete national grower list. 113 farm rows are recorded: Washington 28, Oregon 23, Idaho 17, Michigan 25, New York 12, Colorado 5, Minnesota 1, state not stated 2. Idaho is now complete against the one official list found: the 2026 Idaho State Department of Agriculture list names 17 distinct active hop growers (18 grower numbers, Gooding Farms twice) and all 17 are rows. Oregon has no official list; the Oregon Hop Commission board names 6 farms and the Yakima Chief Ranches roster adds 12, and the Oregon Encyclopedia says fewer than 30 families grow hops. Washington is the largest gap: 22 Yakima Chief Ranches roster farms plus other sourced farms against about 70 Pacific Northwest farms (trade newsletter, 2023) and no public Washington Hop Commission roster. Michigan has 25 names against more than 20 reported growers. Wisconsin (about 100 producers reported) has no named farm.agri.idaho.gov

Commission rosterscoverageOregon Hop Commission: the site lists the 2025 to 2026 board only (7 grower seats, 1 vacant; 6 farms named), not members. Idaho: the Idaho State Department of Agriculture publishes the full licensed grower list (read). Washington: the Washington State Hop Commission has no site of its own (wahops.org redirects to Hop Growers of America), the WSDA commission page carried no commissioner or grower names in the first 100000 characters, and the Hop Growers of America grower directory is a supplier directory.
