GREELEY - Grow local. Buy local. Eat local. As the local trend also drives locally sourced brews, small hops and barley operations have been popping up all over northern Colorado with the hopes of satisfying the needs of the state's 200 craft breweries. One of the newer additions to Colorado craft beer culture is Troubadour Maltings, a Fort Collins-based malting facility that contracts local farmers to grow barley. Three of Troubadour's contracted farms are in Weld County, with one owned by David Eckhardt, who used to grow barley for Coors.
