- Description:
- Postcard titled "Siwash and two Klootchmen Hop Picking in Snoqualmie Hop Fields."
For nearly thirty years, beginning in the early 1880s, entrepreneurial farmers in King County raised hops to sell to regional breweries. Chinese and Native American laborers picked the annual crop, setting up camp in the fields, and picking the hops into baskets. - Local Identifier:
