 Organic Spelt Grain
Spelt is a
nutritious and flavorful relative of common wheat. An ancient grain,
it is unusual because it retains nearly all of its nutritional value
in the kernel, therefore, even after processing, it contains high
levels of proteins and carbohydrates. Good source of dietary fiber,
thiamin, niacin, iron and potassium. Easy to digest. Contains
gluten, but is tolerated by many wheat sensitive people. Spelt has a
delicious, light and nutty flavor. Easily substituted for wheat in
recipes.

- Why
go organic? Organic foods are grown without synthetic
fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides. Organic foods are not
genetically modified. Organic foods are grown in soil that is
nurtured, not treated... which means top soil, groundwater,
rivers, lakes, streams, watersheds, fish & wildlife, and people
are not compromised. Healthy food grows in healthy soil. You can
often taste the organic difference!
