Since 2003 we have lived by this motto, and we continue to perfect it.
As a farmer-owned flour brand, everything about our wheat producing practices, our supply chain, our pricing, and our wheat & flour quality-control processes are an open book. Our flour can be tracked back to the farms that produced the wheat, farms that are dedicated to repairing our agricultural ecosystems from the degradation that has happened in the past.
When you use Shepherd's Grain flours, you partner with us to make food production sustainable, and you help these family farms remain economically sustainable.
Shepherd's Grain branded flours are milled by Grain Craft, and the wheat is identity-preserved from the fields through the milling process.

Shepherd's Grain was created to connect farmers dedicated to regenerative agriculture with end users and consumers. We have done this by cultivating relationships based on transparency and a mutual desire to see our food supply chains become more personal and sustainable.
Our quality is the foundation of it all, and our growers only produce varieties of wheat that have the highest end-use quality. We know how wheat from each farm performs in the mixer and oven, and we blend their wheat to ensure flour performance consistency.
Printed on each bag of flour is a lot code that can be paired to information on the farms that produced the wheat in that bag.
