Research Description

I am broadly interested in learning about the farming communities that participated in the beer brewing industry in British Columbia during the late-nineteenth to mid-twentieth century. More specifically, I intend to explore the history of the hop industry in Fraser Valley, B.C. and how it later developed throughout the twentieth century.
