Azure Market Organics Soft White Wheat, Organic

Soft white wheat berries which is lower in protein and higher in carbohydrates than the Hard Wheat varieties and its flour is therefore better suited for pastries, cookies, muffins, cakes, pancakes, and waffles. Soft white wheat is also the choice for sprouting.

Azure Market Organics Soft White Wheat is grown on the Azure Farm from open pollenated Stephens variety seed. After each harvest Azure collects seeds to be used for the next year’s harvest, these seeds are not old enough to be considered an heirloom variety. 

Azure Farm is located in the foothills east of Mt. Hood with a fantastic view of the Cascades and farm land in the valleys below. This is wheat growing country where dry-land farming produces an abundance of soft white wheat and other grains. But what makes our farm different from most other wheat farms is our growing practices. We've been growing organically for over 25 years, and are attempting to go beyond basic organic (this ensures harmful things have not been used). We try to keep up with organic soil amendments that will actually improve our soil, and consequently improve the food itself.
