- GRAIN DESCRIPTIONS -

HERITAGE CEREAL: Little changed by selective breeding over the last millennia, this ancient grain cereal is the perfect cereal to start the day. Nutritious, flavorful and full of fiber, this cereal is made from organic spelt, oats, rye, and heritage wheat. Cook as you would old fashioned oatmeal to make a delicious porridge and top with your favorite combination of butter, maple syrup, dried fruit and nuts, or, fold the porridge into bread dough to add a hearty chew to your home.

ORGANIC BUCKWHEAT FLOUR: Distinctively nutty and naturally without gluten (but milled in the same facility as wheat). Grown in Maine. The traditional flour for making French-Canadian ployes (pancakes, crepes). It also can be used in place of wheat flour in quick breads like banana bread.

ORGANIC CRACKED OATS: Sweet, cracked oats grown in Maine. Cook as you would steel-cut oats. Pre-soak for shorter cooking time. Best if stored in an airtight container in the freezer or used fresh.

ORGANIC ROLLED OATS: Enjoy our freshly milled rolled oats on their own or in granola and baked goods. Cook as you would old fashioned oatmeal on the stovetop or microwave.

ORGANIC RYE FLOUR: Low in gluten and rich in fiber, enjoy our freshly milled rye flour in aromatic breads like pumpernickel, volkornbrot, crisp breads and even in cookies and pancakes.

ORGANIC SPELT FLOUR: One of the ancient hulled wheats, spelt is a principal grain used in Germany and Switzerland. It is nutrient-dense with a sweet aroma. A protein level of 11% means that this spelt is excellent in bread and all-purpose applications. This variety is called Oberkulmer. Use as you would wheat flour.

ORGANIC WHEAT FLOUR: Organic Whole Wheat Flour made from hard red spring wheat. Perfect for all-purpose whole grain baking.
