Community + Conservation + Craft Malted Grain

We’re on a mission to build innovative malt supply chains in support of family farms, rural communities, and landscape-scale conservation. We start with water and strive for comprehensive sustainability.

We help brewers, distillers, and bakers bring the farm to their fans through premium malt.

Each of our partnering farms employs meaningful conservation practices that help restore our region's landscapes and waterways. Salmon-Safe certification, habitat enhancement, dryland farming practices, irrigation efficiency, and low water crop rotations are some of the practices we encourage.

Our goal is always to meet family farmers where they are, uncover opportunities for more sustainable practices, and provide premium crop contracts to incentivize change. Looking forward, we’re excited to extend our offerings to include certified organic and perennial grains. We’ll also be doubling down on our commitments to the rural communities where we do business.
