Oregon Grown Einkorn Flakes

Einkorn (Farro piccolo) is the world’s most ancient type of wheat. It is one of the first plants to be domesticated and cultivated. It has a higher percentage of protein compared to modern red wheat and is considered more nutritious with higher levels of fat, phosphorous, potassium, pyridoxine, and beta-carotene. With a full, nutty flavor and off-white to tan color, emmer flakes are a tasty and nutritious ingredient to use cereals, muesli and as a topping for artisan bread and baked goods.

From the Heart of the Willamette Valley in Oregon, we are proud to offer a full line of Camas Country Mill artisan flours and grains. Camas Country Mills wheat and grains are grown by Hunton Farms in Junction City, Oregon. This third-generation family farm is one of the first in the Willamette Valley to transition from growing grass seed to growing grains and beans. The Hunton family is committed to building a strong, sustainable and vibrant regional grain community.
