Stringing The Hop Garden

×

There will be few Nelsonians who have not seen a hop garden laden with vines, but not as many would have seen (as we did, for the first time) Just how the wires are strung. Here, John Francois uses a weighted ring attached to his twine to carry the twine over the wire and down to the hop vine. Intriguing, isn't it.
