The presenters offer insights into the similarities and differences in gathering records and oral histories about two of Oregon's most promising agricultural commodities: hops and cannabis. For both crops, they discuss Oregon's history of cultivation, changing markets and social stigma attached to their growing and use, and how these factors influence the role of archives in collecting and preserving their histories.
