What a
wonderful experience purchasing my grains through Tropical Traditions! My
husband surprised me with a family grain mill for my birthday. Unfortunately, he
didn't think of the grains : ) I quickly placed my order with you. Not only were
the grains priced well and shipped quickly (they arrived 2 days earlier than
thought), but they were of superior quality. I can't wait to do business again
with Tropical Traditions! Thank you!!! Jacquie

ORGANIC HULLED SPELT WHOLE GRAIN
Spelt, hulled “triticum spelta” is the
scientific name for this old grain originally
grown in southeast Asia and later brought to
Europe and latter yet to the U.S. It varies from
wheat, “triticum sativum” in a number of ways,
but its digestibility is the most important to
many who cannot tolerate “sativum.” Its very
strong hull must be mechanically removed.

New! Organic Einkorn Grain Berries
Einkorn is an ancient grain, and is perhaps the
oldest variety of "wheat." Einkorn can sometimes be referred to as "farro" or "farro
einkorn." Einkorn was first cultivated 5,000 to 10,000 years
ago and is classified as a "diploid" because it only has two sets of
chromosomes. Modern wheat varieties are typically classified as "hexaploid," having six
sets of chromosomes, due to a long history of hybridization.
Einkorn is thought to have originated in the upper area of the fertile crescent
of the Near East (Tigris-Euphrates regions), and is quite probably the main
grain recorded in the earliest biblical history.
Einkorn became widely distributed throughout the Near East, Transcaucasia, the
Mediterranean region, southwestern Europe, and the Balkans, and was one of the
first cereals cultivated for food. Read
