Our family raises organic, non-GMO grains on a small farm in Illinois, from start to finish.
Unhappy with the introduction of GMO’s and agriculture’s increasing use of chemicals, I began experimenting with organic methods, starting small with our first certified organic sweet corn in 2007.
Today, we’ve expanded to include organic oats, wheat, popcorn, peas, soybeans, and buckwheat, and our products are being sold in restaurants and stores everywhere from Chicago to St. Louis.
When choosing natural varieties for food crops, taste is our most important factor. This leads us back in time to older—and often heirloom—varieties. So get ready to enjoy the delicious and nutrient-rich meals you’re craving, made with love from our crops.
