Western Massachusetts Grains, Grown in Long Term Organic Rotation

Beer from the fields!

We recently sold some grain to Valley Malt, a home garage-style malting business that has started up in Hadley, MA. It's exciting to see people make a go of reviving this on a cottage industry scale locally.  They in turn are selling our malted wheat to Worm Town Brewery in Worcester, who are making it into beer, which then will be sold to a brew pub in Cambridge MA. I think this is the longest regional supply chain we have ever sent our grain down, an interesting venture into the world of a larger (but not too large) food-chain.
