| Description |
English: Between the 1860s and the early 1900s, hops were grown widely in western Washington as flavoring for beer. It took many people to pick the hop blossoms each September. Many Native American families traveled to the hop fields, where they camped out and helped with the harvest. Some returned to the same hop fields each year, and this became an important social event.
This photo, probably taken in the 1890s, shows Native American men, women, and children at work in a hop field near Kent. Schools were closed during the harvest so that children could help in the fields.
