Whole Day for Whole Grains
Bluebird Grain Farms joined in the Whole Grains Day event on March 27th, organized by the Whole Grains Council. This global celebration aims to encourage people to enjoy whole grains in various ways. We shared over 200 lbs. of our tasty whole grain samples with different businesses and institutions across the country. We were excited to share our Spelt, Emmer, and Einkorn with Washington State University.
Martha Flores, the health and wellness coordinator at WSU, shared her thoughts and experiences with us. She thanked us for supporting their “Grain Week” vision and mentioned how students enjoyed trying out different grains. They even played a game called “Guess the Grain” and were excited to take home samples to incorporate into their meals. Martha noted that students were particularly thrilled to learn that these grains were locally grown in Washington. We’re delighted to have been a part of such a positive and educational experience!
