British Columbia Pictorial Times - May 1965

The Pictorial Times is a special issue or insert of the Vancouver Times. The Vancouver Times was a short-lived (1964-1965) daily newspaper in Vancouver, founded by William “Val” Warren. The original copy is not complete (pages XX to XX are missing), so the digital object contains only the pages related to the Squamish area--the Paradise Valley story.

Women in buggy at Squamish Hop Company Ranch

Group of unknown women in buggy at the Squamish Hop Company Ranch.

Hop farming was Squamish's first major industry. The major producer was Squamish Valley Hop Raising Co. (Bell-Irving Ranch). Hops are perennials and grown about 6 feet apart. They are picked during September and August. Hops are dried and bleached with sulphur in a kiln. In Squamish, Chinese labour was brought in to tend the hops. Local First Nations picked them. They would camp in the area now between Petro Canada gas station and the Cottonwood condominiums. The hops in Squamish were top grade. They were shipped to Vancouver in bales wrapped in Burlap, then shipped to Britain where they were used to make beer.

No hops grown but frame house and out-buildings built for Potter.
