CONNECTING INDEPENDENT FAMILY FARMS TO THE GLOBAL BREWING COMMUNITY

PROVIDING SUSTAINABLE RESOURCES THROUGH COLLABORATION

At Yakima Chief Hops, we make it our mission to tell the stories of the family-owned, independent hop farms from which we source our hops, as we work to strengthen the connection between growers and brewers. We recognize that with this mission comes the shared responsibility to ensure that both YCH and our growers complement and positively reflect one another.
That is why we intentionally partner with family hop farms that share the same values that are deeply rooted within our heritage. We are proud to say that our core values are woven throughout our organization, from the way our growers farm their fields to the culture that is created within our offices. It is why brewers choose to buy our hops. Our company values are contained within our PRIDE statement as follows:

VALUES

Our grower owners and their family hop farms are as unique as the varieties they cultivate, each having their own history,
traditions and personalities. We strive to embrace and share these unique stories with the brewing community, as our
customers remember each farm for their own distinct qualities.
