Even more to taste and see: craft distilleries, cideries and breweries – experience tours, tastings & tap rooms
Ontario and its Greenbelt have always been an ideal place to grow hops, so perfect that discreet patches of hops from prohibition era farms still survive 100 years later! Due partly to a worldwide hop shortage, but also to the popularity of the local food and beverage movement, 2007 saw the emergence of a new generation of Ontario hop farmers. And they are busy keeping up with the demands of locally minded craft brewers, who use up to 10 times the amount of hops than in standard brews from larger breweries.
It’s just as well that ontario’s high quality hops can grow up to 12 inches a day in peak season! Find out more at http://www.ontariohopgrowersassociation.ca or at Harvest Hop and Malt on Discovery Route 1 (Hamilton).

Innovative local food partnerships bringing
communities together
Take, for example, the Old Flame Brewing
Co. in historic downtown Port Perry. They
send their “spent grain” to local yellowlees
Family Farm, the sheep are fed the grain,
the lamb meat goes to a local butcher,
Herrington’s, where they make beer infused
Lamb and Lager pies. Spent grain is used
to make Port Perry’s famous hanks pastries
and old Flame’s Maple Walnut stout is made
with maple syrup from Willowtree Farm.
