I don't have any, but we have had quite a few acres go in nearby. The hops like the same climate/soils that grow good grapes and other fruit, so SW MI fits pretty well. The first 20 acres went in about ten years ago, another five started about five years ago. Word was then that it runs about $30K per acre to start on clear ground. The BTO neighbor said they figure on $5K per acre for new grapes.

They have built several buildings for processing the hops, and begun to put up the trellis after clearing the nursery stock. Appears to be a multi-million dollar operation already, and will have the machinery needed to process for many other growers/brewers.
