Yep.

Worked on a hop ranch (farm) fer 3 summers during high school (RCHS).
This was not near Watt, where all hop farms were long gone by the 60s,
but way out on Sloughhouse Rd. Last time I looked, about 10 yrs ago,
Sloughhouse Rd was all "ranchettes" caternig to the wannabe horsey
set. Most hops are now grown in OR and WA.
