Feels like it's Christmas Time!!
I've just been invited to take all the spent malt and hops from the local micro-brewery at one of the pubs where I sell my Pickles, Jams and Chutneys.
Fantastic soil conditioner, great publicity (drink more beer, get more chutney), and sustainable production!!
I haven't been invited but I did phone up & ask :icon_cheers:. We usually collect on a Friday. The car smells lovely :icon_cheers: when we've collected.
Picked up about 50kg this morning. The car and allotment have never smelt so good
Just one thing worth noting, apparently spent hops can be poisonous to dogs. Never saw any evidence of this when we had a dog (I use a lot of spent hops) but if you google, there is quite a lot of info on the web.
