#120 - Using Ancient Grains & Ethical Growing with Jade from Grand Teton Ancient Grains

Khorasan rye, spelt, emmer, millet, quinoa - what do all of these delicious foods have in common? They are considered ancient grains, grasses harking back to a time before industrial development and heavy hybridisation.You are what you eat eats, and that goes for grains as well as anything else. The nutrients your grains are pulling up out of the soil are the ones you will find in your finished product. Grains are an incredible source of minerals and micronutrients when grown in a regenerative manner.This is why today I am so excited to introduce you to Grand Teton Ancient Grains!
