At Black’s Tropical Homestead, we believe in feeding our families the way nature intended—pure, nutrient-dense, and time-tested. That’s why we trust Grand Teton Ancient Grains, a farm that grows grains the way they were grown thousands of years ago—without shortcuts, chemicals, or compromise.
These are the original grains—einkorn, spelt, emmer, white sonora, and more—untouched by modern hybridization and packed with natural goodness. Grown regeneratively and harvested with care in the shadow of the Tetons, these grains are a true gift from the land.
Nutrient-Rich – Naturally high in protein, fiber, and essential minerals like iron and magnesium
Grown Regeneratively – No glyphosate, no synthetic inputs, just real stewardship of the soil
Digestive-Friendly – Many varieties are lower in gluten and easier on the gut
Stone-Milled Fresh – Whole grain flours that retain the bran, germ, and flavor nature intended
Flavor That Matters – Bold, nutty, earthy notes that elevate everything from pancakes to pizza dough
Whether you’re baking from scratch, experimenting with fresh milled flour, or simply trying to eat closer to the earth, Grand Teton Ancient Grains offer a powerful way to reconnect with your food.
Want to see how we use these grains in our own kitchen and garden? Check out our videos, classes, and recipes to bring ancient nutrition back into your modern life.
