Organic Heritage Red Fife
Red Fife is a heritage variety of hard red spring wheat grown in Canada as far back as 1840. Heritage wheats are unique cultivars that have existed since before the “Green Revolution” of the mid 1900s, and are known for their genetic diversity and adaptability in challenging growing conditions. Traditionally planted as a Spring wheat, we have had success growing this as a winter variety, which helps to keep the soil covered before greening up the following spring.
Hard Red Wheat (Red Fife), grown by Meadowlark Organics in Ridgeway, WI.
Bolted flour is sifted through a fine mesh screen to remove a portion of the bran, while retaining the nutritious germ and energy dense endosperm. Remaining bran particles are full of fiber and produce a light cream colored flour.
Whole Wheat flour contains 100% of the wheat - the nutrient dense germ, starch filled endosperm, and fiber rich bran.
Protein Content: 13%
Falling Number: 315
Our flours are stone milled which preserves the rich flavor and nutritional value of the grain. Best within 6 months - refrigerate or freeze for longer storage.
