We Feature Fresh Ground 100% Whole Wheat Flour!
 

We at Great Harvest believe in providing customers with awesome tasting products. Not only do our products taste better than the average baked goods, but our freshly milled whole grain wheat flour assures that we’re delivering high nutritional value.

All of our products are made from scratch – no mixes or frozen dough. We mill our whole wheat flour fresh daily on our stone mill right here in the bakery. It doesn't get any fresher than that. Whole wheat kernels are poured into one end of the mill and come out the other end as 100% whole wheat flour. There is absolutely no separation of flour components; nothing added or taken out - just pure fresh flour from the whole grain. Everything that goes into the hopper of the mill comes out the chute -- only much, much finer. It's amazing what two rapidly rotating granite stones can do.

We’ve always known fresh ground flour tastes better. Our home office has done blind taste tests just to prove what we’ve known intuitively all along — whole grain baked goods taste great.  We know the fresh flour is better nutritionally as well. Great taste and great nutrition — a winning combo.

Techie Data Alert: When a kernel of wheat is milled, all parts of the flour start to oxidize as they’re exposed to the air – the germ, which contains free fatty acids, is particularly vulnerable to this oxidation. Simply put, if milled whole wheat flour is not used fresh, it goes rancid. Using our flour as soon as possible after its milled assures that the nutritive value of our products is the best it can be — and the taste is absolutely superb. Whole grain has never tasted so good.

Our signature Honey Whole Wheat Bread has five (5) ingredients: 100% Whole Wheat Flour, Water, Honey, Yeast & Salt. Simple, Delicious and Healthy — what more could you ask for?
