Organic Hard White Wheat has a high protein content and a hard texture, making it well-suited for bread making and other baking purposes. It is often milled into flour, which can then be used to make a variety of baked goods, including bread, rolls, bagels, pastries, and more. Its high protein content and strong gluten formation make it particularly well-suited for producing bread with good structure, volume and texture.

Additionally, organic hard white wheat is used to make other wheat-based products such as pasta, malt, and breakfast cereals. Its versatility and nutritional benefits make it a popular choice among brewers, artisan bakeries, and food manufacturers seeking high-quality, organic ingredients.

Organic Proso Millet, also known as broomcorn millet or white millet, is one of the oldest cultivated grains in the world, with origins dating back thousands of years to regions of Asia and Africa. Proso millet is valued for its nutritional content, adaptability to various climates and soil types and versatility in culinary applications.

Proso millet grains are small, round, and typically creamy-white or pale yellow in color. They have a mild, slightly nutty flavor and a soft texture when cooked. Proso millet is gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.

Because it is gluten-free, it is often used by breweries and distilleries to produce gluten-free alcohol. Proso millet grains can be cooked and used as a whole grain in dishes such as porridge, pilafs and salads. They can also be ground into flour and used to make flatbreads, pancakes and baked goods.

We plant wheat in the fall with seeds about one inch apart when the air is chilly and the soil is still warm. That induces the plants to grow as nature intends.  After 30 days, the plants grows only one inch of leaf,  but the roots are a foot deep in rich glacial soil.

Kernza® is the first commercially available perennial grain and is a substitute for traditional wheat in foods such as flour, bread, tortillas, crackers, pasta and beer or can be used as a whole grain ingredient.

It’s extensive root system prevents erosion, cleans water, mitigates nitrate leaching, improves soil health, and sequesters more atmospheric carbon than traditional wheat.

Kernza® grain is harvested from intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium). It’s closely related to annual wheat and has been historically grown as fodder for livestock. The Land Institute, a non-profit research, education and policy organization based in Salina, Kansas, began breeding Kernza for human consumption in 2003.

Kernza’s commercial launch is the result of an unprecedented coalition of land grant universities, farmers, research partners, processors, and CPG companies from 15 states and 10 countries, including leadership from the University of Minnesota’s Forever Green Initiative.

Today the emerging crop is grown on nearly 4,000 acres across the U.S. & Canada and is being sold to sustainability focused brands and consumers.

Characteristics of Kernza

Environmental

• Improves soil’s ability to retain water, prevents runoff, and reduces soil erosion
• May reduces nitrate leaching into groundwater by 95%
• Provides diverse wildlife habitat
• Kernza production reduces greenhouse gas emissions due to reduced tillage and inputs
• Perennial grasslands, like Kernza, sequester 300 - 1,000 pounds of atmospheric carbon per acre per year

Formulation & Flavor

• Flavor: Kernza has a unique sweet & nutty flavor profile.
• High in protein, fiber, potassium, carotenoids, calcium, and antioxidants - especially when compared to wheat
• It performs more like rye in baking applications
• Kernza is most often used as a blended ingredient with Common inclusions rates between 10-50%

Sonora White Wheat is as prized for its delicate flavor and soft texture as it is low in protein. It is one of the oldest surviving wheat varieties in North America, tracing its origin to the Sonora region of Mexico. Growing the crop in Oregon, this wheat's deep root structure can reach deep into the soil for water and nutrients and doesn't need irrigation.

Hard Red Spring Wheat (HRSW) grown in California, is a premium wheat variety prized across the food and beverage industries, especially among bakers, maltsters, brewers, and distillers, due to its high protein content, strong gluten, and distinct flavor.

In baking, it is prized for high protein (typically 13–16%) which leads to:

• Strong gluten development
• Excellent dough strength
• High loaf volume
• Results in chewy texture, open crumb, and extended freshness.

HRSW is occasionally used to make specialty malt, especially when a unique flavor profile or higher enzymatic power is desired. It has a limited  role in brewing compared to barley, but can be part of adjunct malt formulations or used in craft brewing for:

• Adding body and head retention
• Contributing to mild, nutty, grainy flavor
• More enzymes than soft wheat, but less than barley
• Brewers typically use pre-gelatinized wheat flakes or wheat malt, but HRSW offers higher protein and flavor for small-batch brews

HRSW can be used in grain bills for whiskey and vodka, especially wheat-based bourbons or neutral grain spirits by adding mouthfeel, softness, and flavor complexity to spirits.

• High starch content (needed for fermentable sugars)
• High protein helps fermentation with robust yeast nutrition
• Provides a creamy, bready character to spirits, unlike corn or rye

While it’s harder to grow, HRSW performance makes it worth the premium in applications demanding strength, chew, or complexity.
