Sourcing:

Both our wheat and our Kernza grain are Regenerative Organic Certified®. Regenerative organic agriculture protects the health of the entire farm system: soil, farm animals and workers. Healthy soil is critical to fighting the climate crisis, because it helps draw down carbon and buffers farms against climate impacts like drought and flooding. 

Regenerative Organic Certified Durum Wheat

• Sourced from Upland Organics, Saskatchewan, Canada 
• Certified in: 2021 (silver level) 
• Upland Organics is a family-run mixed cattle and grain farm. Cody Straza and his wife, Allison Squires, started farming in 2013 after Cody left his job as an engineer so they could live closer to the land. The couple have farmed organically from the start, incorporating regenerative practices in 2015. 
• Upland's regenerative organic practices: Minimal soil disturbance, vegetative ground cover, crop rotations, cover crop mixes, integrated livestock, compost teas and biological amendments. 

Regenerative Organic Certified Kernza

• Sourced from A-Frame Farms, Madison, MN
• Certified in: 2022 (silver level)
• Farmer Luke Peterson and his wife Ali, a nurse practitioner, believe soil health promotes human health. Luke adopts a systems approach to farming, and has been growing Kernza since 2016. He grows other perennials on his diversified farm and raises livestock, too.
• Kernza is a wheatlike perennial grain that grows exceptionally deep roots. Unlike most grains, Kernza doesn't require annual tilling and replanting, so it's less carbon intensive to farm. What's more, Kernza's deep roots build soil, protect groundwater from pollution and keep topsoil from eroding.
• A-Frame's regenerative organic practices: No fall tillage on annual crops, cover crops, diverse crop rotations, integrated livestock, perennials, habitat for pollinators and wildlife.
