CORNMEAL
CORNMEAL
Milled from Wapsie Valley Open Pollinated Corn, c.1850 grown at Weatherbury Farm (See the Wapsie Valley corn growing in the field)
Weatherbury’s open pollinated Wapsie Valley Corn packs both a visual and a flavor punch. Milling at a low temperature maintains the nutrients & flavor of the grain.
And as to taste — cornbread made with Weatherbury’s pastry flour and cornmeal placed at the county fair 9 out of the past 10 years, winning 4 First place awards and 3 Second place award and 2 Third place awards.
Stone Ground Organic Open Pollinated Cornmeal — More finely ground than polenta. Yellow with some red flecks. Milled at a low temperature, it maintains the nutrients and flavor of the organic open pollinated non-GMO corn.
Used in bread, muffins, cakes , pancakes, johnny cakes, hush puppies, dressing, stuffing, spoon pudding.
2 lbs ($4.86)*; 5 lbs ($9.35)*; 20lbs ($32.73); 25lbs ($38.51); 50lbs ($74.05)**
* 2 and 5 pound bags are packaged in re-sealable bags.

Please note, while corn has no gluten, Weatherbury’s Cornmeal is processed in our mill, where we also process grains with gluten. While there is a vigorous cleanout between types of grain, some wheat flour could remain. Thus, it cannot be considered gluten free.

Storing Weatherbury Farm Products
Storing Weatherbury Farm Products
Flours, Rolled Products & Berries:
Weatherbury flours, rolled products or berries are real food and insects find them tasty.
They should be stored in the refrigerator. If you will not be using immediately, keep in the freezer, especially in warm weather.
We have had reports from customers that even after two years they still work and taste great. We wouldn’t, however, recommend storing them that long.
Although there are organic pesticides, we do not use them, either on the grains in the field or the products we mill.
If you store the flours, rolled products or berries in a tightly lidded bucket, you will open your bucket and find bugs slipping into what you thought was an impenetrable space. If you have been storing organic flours, milled products & berries in a lidded bucket and there are no bugs, then an organic pesticide has been used.
Beans:
Keep the beans in a cool, dark, dry place. Dry beans will, over time, take longer to cook (but they still have great flavor).
