    I bought some a while back from whole foods. I had to pre order it cause i bought like six 50lb. bags at $50 per bag a couple years ago. Get the hard winter wheat for storage. http://store.honeyvillegrain.com/hardredwheat50lb.aspx http://www.ncwheatmontanacoop.com/or...bag-p-196.html

    Might try going to a grain elevator. Occasionally they will sell small amounts to folks.

    The Montana Co-op is the closest to the real "market price" of wheat. Wheat is trading on the boards at $6 per bushel. That's 60 lbs, not processed or washed, but lots of potential flour. It kills me to see folks paying a buck a pound.

    Go to the grainery in Briggsdale, Colorado. Very reasonable price, fresh local product, and very nice people to deal with. The next best thing to ordering directly from the farmer. Be sure and ask for the clean wheat - where they've removed most of the rocks and bugs. Now the important next question is what type of a wheat grinder do you have? The hand crank ones do not do a very good job. Get an electric with a good warrenty!

    The only number I can find is disconnected. Any idea if these guys are still in business?

    The http://staffoflife.biz/index.php - taste of life - staff of life has twice a year orders for Montana grain. It's is located in Monument
    18965 Base Camp Road, A4
    Monument, CO 80132

    I bought some organic grains and a few other items. Up side - cheaper than most in Colorado Springs - down side - for the twice a year gain orders you have to pre-pay with cash - or check before the order is placed.

    They may still do once a month orders from Azure standard - but there are delivery and handling charges which makes it not quite as good of a deal http://www.azurestandard.com/

    Depending on where you live - you might be able to buy directly from Azure Standard - or find a local group of folks that band together and place an order. I know of a few facebook groups that do just that.

    Call him first
    99% of his business is by the ton he keeps no inventory bagged
    It takes a week or two get it bagged ( it is not high priority for him) so call for quote and to get it bagged in 50lb bags (60lbs is a bushel) He might have a mininum
    If you have him bag it up please pick it up so you dont screw it up for everyone and have him say bagging is too much trouble!
    What you are looking for is food grade hard red winter wheat for long term storage
    Nice guy,cool business.
    He has beans too.
