Ancient Whole Grain is located in Temple, Texas. This is a group of family farms specializing in growing organic, low-gluten, healthy, ancient grains. Here is something interesting about Ancient Whole Grain. They are dedicated to keeping the strain of the grain pure. So they make sure to grow just one variety on each plot. And to avoid using toxic chemicals, they plant on small plots so that it is easy to control weeds, pests, and diseases. This is their own path to organic farming. This may sound unique or unfamiliar to many, but that is just one more proof of how diverse and creative farming is in Texas. They sell ancient whole wheat seeds (Banatka, Emmer, Black Emmer, Biblical Durum, and Red May) as well as Mixed Botanical seeds. If this is your cup of tea, get in touch with Ancient Whole Grain. Ancient Whole Grains are higher in proteins and almost no gluten to low gluten so it's an excellent choice for those with strict dietary requirements or to anyone that just wants to eat healthier!
