The natural beauty of the area is a constant reminder of the importance of our commitment to organic agriculture. Organic, or sustainable agriculture is more than the avoidance of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. An organic farm strives to protect our environment by building and maintaining healthy soil which, in turn, improves water and air quality. It has been shown that grain and other food crops grown in a healthy soil, resist pests and diseases better than conventionally grown crops and also contain more vital nutrients important to humans. Consuming organic foods promotes the health of individuals and the land on which it was grown. In supporting organic agriculture we promote the cycle of a healthy environment which includes the lives of microorganisms, plants, and humans. Most Great River flour is stone-ground. We believe the natural granite millstones contribute to the quality, taste and nutritional integrity of whole grain flour. Grain flowing into the stones becomes very thin, flat flakes which integrates all parts of the wheat immediately into the flour, allowing the flour to have more flavor. The cooler temperatures that occur during milling with stones allows important enzyme activity to continue. Protein levels are also be maintained. Our stone-ground flours are milled to order, to retain the nutritional value of the flour. Great River is Certified Organic by Quality Assurance International and Kosher approved. Obtaining our certification requires a yearly inspection of our milling facility and records to insure that our products meet industry standards. Review: Excellent seed, and I've tried many - I can't speak to baking with this wheat, since I only use it to grow wheatgrass for my chickens and rabbits. But what I can say is that it performs wonderfully, with almost all seeds germinating. I've tried other suppliers with mixed success. This company's seeds always seem to be better than others. They are very clean too. I've had some others filled with dust, which isn't a huge deal for my purposes, but if I was using the seed for personal consumption, might be unpleasant. Very pleased, and I use a LOT of it. Chickens and rabbits love this fresh grown grass. You get a lot of feed out of a small amount of seed and water. My chickens eat every scrap, roots and all. Some rabbits can be a little fussier about the roots. Every morning, they are lined up waiting for their grass. Even though they have feeders full of pellets. This is candy to them. My egg yolks are as dark as oranges, even in winter. Review: Wonderful, Well-Cleaned Hard Red Wheat - This is beautiful wheat. It's not even dusty. (The wheat I was using before was HORRID by comparison; I had to sift through it by hand to check for bits of dirt and even small rocks, there were a lot of broken grains, and there were little dead bugs. When I received THIS wheat and opened the bag, there was such a difference that I took that old wheat and threw it out on the lawn!) The grains are pleasingly full, never withered. There are very few broken grains. I found a few stray kernels of a tiny buckwheat-like grain, but those won't hurt anything. NO ROCKS or other non-grain contaminants whatsoever. It is very well cleaned. There were a few un-husked wheat kernels, maybe 1-3 in the nine cups of wheat I put through my mill to make three loaves of bread. It was easy enough to spot them and pick them out by hand, and the ones I miss do no harm. The bread I produced with this wheat, using the same recipes I always do from the excellent "Laurel's Kitchen Bread Book" (ISBN 978-0394537009), was simply outstanding, especially when baked in USA Pans ("8.5 x 4.5 Inch Aluminized Steel Loaf Pan with Americoat"). The wheat is high in gluten and produces high-rising, flavorful loaves. I'm sure the specific flavor and gluten content varies from crop to crop, but I was very satisfied with this particular bag of wheat. I have used ALL of it except for a handful that is sitting in a pickle jar, and am back to order more. **Update January 2014** I ordered the 50-pound bag in December '13, since I had been happy with the 25-pound bag and had gone through it so quickly. I don't know why, but it is not nearly as clean as the wheat in the 25-pound bag was. I picked out maybe 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of hard little dirt chunks (plus one small chunk of either asphalt or rock!) from a six-cup batch of wheat. I miss being able to just give the wheat a quick check and then dump it in the mill. ## Features - Organic Hard Red Wheat Berries; Designed for home-milled bread flour, sourdough, sprouting, salads, pilaf and grain bowls with clear product-specific performance for home millers, sourdough bakers - USDA Organic, Non-GMO, Kosher; Listing attributes are stated clearly for shoppers comparing ingredients, certifications and dietary needs - Texture and performance; Delivers high-protein wheat for robust fresh flour and chewy cooked grain for dependable results across home and professional recipes - Versatile applications; Use for home-milled bread flour, sourdough, sprouting, salads, pilaf and grain bowls while maintaining consistent flavor, handling and preparation - 25 lb; Bulk size supports bakeries, restaurants, foodservice kitchens and high-volume production ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0049YK20Q | | Age Range Description | All Ages | | Allergen Information | Wheat | | Best Sellers Rank | #33,219 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #36 in Dried Wheat Berries | | Brand | Great River Milling | | Brand Name | Great River Milling | | Coin Variety 1 | Wheat | | Container Type | Bag | | Cuisine | European cuisine | | Cultivation Method Claim | No Chemical Fertilizers, No Pesticides | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,351 Reviews | | Diet Type | Kosher, Plant Based, Vegan, Vegetarian | | Flavor | Hard Red Spring Wheat | | Item Form | Whole | | Item Highlight | Organic Hard Red Spring Wheat Berries for home-milled bread flour, sourdough, sprouting, salads, pilaf and grain bowls | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 12.25 kg | | Item Weight | 25 pounds | | Manufacturer | Great River Milling | | Model Number | 684765400253 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Package Size Name | 25 lb | | Part Number | 684765400253 | | Product Shelf Life | 730 days | | Protein | 7 g | | Region of Origin | United States | | Serving Range | 100-150 servings | | Shelf Life | 730 days | | Size | 400 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Specialty | Chemical Free, GMO Free, Glyphosate Free, Kosher Certified, Organic | | UPC | 684765400253 | | Unit Count | 400 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Great River Milling - **Item Package Quantity:** 1 - **Item Weight:** 25 pounds - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 400 Ounce ## Images ![Great River Milling Organic Hard Red Spring Wheat Berries, Non-GMO, 25 lb - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81MNID-Db2L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the best way to store an opened bag without a basement or cool area (live in south)?** A: IT MUST BE STORED COOL, DRY, AND IN THE DARK. I put a month's worth of whest in a vacuum freezer bag, vacuum seal it with an Amazon oxygen absorber pack, to keep it from going rancid (from the natural oils in the berries) AND a moisture absorber, to help it stay dry. Alternatively, use a small piece of cloth or a pouch of UNTREATED (no oil coating on the steel wool to reduce rusting) FINE 000 gauge steel wool inside the bag, will help remove the moisture (by rusting) & remove oxygen too, (by rusting as well). I remove the cloth pouch of steel wool when I unsealed the bag, and discard it, after inspecting it to see how much oxygen and moisture it "absorbed" by rusting. COOL, DARK, NO AIR, AND DRY, and your wheat berries can last for over a decade. I've heard of people keeping unground grains for decades this way. **Q: can you use this product to make biscuits, cakes, cookies, pie crusts** A: The product we received is raw, unground wheat seeds / "berries". To obtain flour, it has to be ground. We use a "Wonder Mill" to do that. We use a bread recipe and process we found on-line to make sandwich loaves that rise like bread you buy in a supermarket but which are made with 100% flour milled from this product along with an optional tablespoon per loaf of active wheat gluten (protein). Have not tried making biscuits, cakes, cookies, and/or pie crusts yet from the flour we make from the Great River product. **Q: Are the wheat berries washed ??** A: I doubt they are washed. They are very clean though... I mill them to flour straight from the bag. There's very little "fines" or dust. **Q: Has anyone ground this wheat and then used in bread machine?** A: I make 2-3 7Lb batches of bread a week with this wheat in a conventional oven. I use a 3:1 wheat to white four ratio and it works very well. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent seed, and I've tried many *by N***E on March 26, 2024* I can't speak to baking with this wheat, since I only use it to grow wheatgrass for my chickens and rabbits.

I also store grain now for long term storage because the economy in our area has declined, as a hedge against inflation and unemployment. I was very impressed with Great River Organic Milling Hard Red Wheat and Soft White Wheat berries. I called the customer service number before purchasing the grain to ask about issues related to long term storage - when the grain was harvested and how long it had been in storage - so that I could put proper dating for use on it when it arrived. All the grain was the new crop grain, having been harvested August, 2011. I had also ordered rye berries, and was concerned how long rye could be stored, using "superpails" with mylar bags/oxygenators/dessicants. They answered all my questions thoroughly. They even told me the best days to place my order so that I would have the best selection and price on Amazon! I was very impressed with their customer service department. I also had concerns that the grain be clean and free of bad kernels or any mold, mildew, or extraneous matter, as my husband was on the heart transplant list and after transplant suppressed immune response is an issue. The rye and wheat was absolutely beautiful. I saw no broken or bad grains at all, no chaff or foreign matter, and the products were essentially dust free. All in all, I was very happy with the rye and wheat I purchased. Great River Organic Milling normally has free super saver shipping for their products on Amazon. Shipping was easy to track and extremely fast: I ordered my grain on a Friday evening around 7PM, and by Saturday 4PM the next day I had my grain, even though I had been told it may take 5-7 days to get the shipment. Great job! I will be ordering more! ## Frequently Bought Together - Great River Organic Milling Organic Whole Grain Hard Red Spring Wheat Berries | Hard Red Whole Wheat | High Protein & Gluten | Non-GMO & Kosher | Perfect For Bread, Salad, Pilaf, Bagels & More | 25 Lb (Pack of 1) - Great River Organic Milling, Whole Grain, Rye Grain, Organic, 25-Pounds (Pack of 1) - Great River Organic Milling Organic Hulled Barley Grain | Whole Grain Barley for Home Milling, Cooking, and Baking | High Fiber, Non GMO, Kosher | 25 Lb (Pack of 1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/3623064-great-river-milling-organic-hard-red-spring-wheat-berries-non](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/3623064-great-river-milling-organic-hard-red-spring-wheat-berries-non) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
