I have an elderly friend who has fond memories of hop-picking in Kent. I have searched EVERYWHERE to buy her a hop pillow..but to no avail. Can anyone help me,please?

If you can find a bulk herb supplier, then I am sure you would find some dried hops. I just saw a heading for herb supplies around the 40 -50ish pages when just browsing. good luck

Hi Denise

Have you tried Baldwins? I don't have their catalogue to hand, but their stock is very large and they respond to enquiries either online or by telephone. They also stock dried hops, but I would ask when they were harvested before you buy from anywhere.

Christine Stapely has a lovely recipe for a sleep pillow with hops and rosemary and other herbs. You could easily make one for her. I'll post it online if you would find that useful.

I have dried my first harvest of fuggle hops and put them away yesterday morning. The smell is quite unique, although I'm not sure I actually like it!

Best wishes

Sarah

I can't help with a hop pillow but I can help with dried hops as I sell them in my online shop along with lots of other dried herbs including lavender, rose petals etc. Contact me via email if you'd like further details.
