Very informative. Breaks down the types of grain. Where grows best, how to process, and how to use as flour. Thank you
Sensible, very useful, and surprising! Who knew millet ( bird seed to us) was a world wide food staple? And the author tells where to find seed varieties! Delightful reading. Not too little info; not too much. You stay interested all the way through.

I bought these seeds to go in bundles of packets of vegetable seeds that I will put in the Blessing Box at a church here in town about late January so people who need to can supplement the groceries they buy with a garden. I'm sure they will love them. If my budget stretches that far, I will get some for myself and let you know how I like them. I still have eight bundles worth of packets of seeds to purchase for them first, though.

I grow flats of this for my pet pigs, because of the high nutritional content. They love it. I find them waiting at the growing location every afternoon waiting for their fave. I've grown beautiful flats of pea sprouts and alfalfa for them too, but they turn up their snouts and walk away.
