Oasis Farms
Oasis Farms is a fourth-generation family hop farm in Prosser, Washington. The farm traces its history back to Brenton Roy's grandfather, a migrant labourer who saved enough money from hand-picking hops to purchase a small plot of land. That single act of determination laid the foundation for a diverse agricultural operation that today includes hops, vineyards, and orchards.
Oasis reached a turning point in 2014. At a crossroads with only 53 hectares of hops and aging infrastructure, the family considered exiting hop production altogether. Instead, they chose to reinvest and rebuild. By committing to steady, incremental improvements to the hop operation, the farm created a world-class growing programme. This approach, combined with strategic facilities upgrades, transformed Oasis Farms into the respected and growing hop producer it is today.
Through deep connections with brewers and an unprecedented level of supply chain transparency, Oasis Farms has sharpened its focus on quality and innovation. Those relationships now drive decisions in the field, ensuring the farm continues to evolve and meet the needs of its teams and the brewing community at large.
Grower Voices
You can buy any machinery you want, but without the right people, it won't work. You have to have the right team in place, and that's exactly what we've done. In four generations of hop farming, no one in our family had ever been inside a brewery to meet brewers until we grew for Yakima Chief. The word 'quality' has been used for years, but it wasn't truly defined as essential until those relationships began. Connecting directly with brewers has shown us just how critical it is to execute quality.
