Home grown episode on Discover Wisconsin

Simple Earth Hops is featured on an episode of Discover Wisconsin which aired the weekend of April 24th. This "Home Grown – Opportunity Wisconsin" episode features Iowa County, WI locals:

Wisconsin maybe known as America’s Dairyland but there are many individual farmers across the state who grow or raise other products that are vital to the state’s agri-economy. Southwest Wisconsin is particularly known for its organic farms especially in the Kickapoo Valley region. There’s the farmer who raises beef cattle who supplies local restaurants so they can serve some of the tastiest burgers around. Or the local hops grower who sells his produce to local micro-breweries for that homegrown flavor. And there are the apple orchards that have been picking locally grown apples for decades and selling them all over the Midwest. We salute the farmers who grow local-sell local to keep the economy fresh and growing.
