We are looking at the calendar and Christmas is approaching fast! Since it is on a Wednesday we are not able to deliver coming week. We are still milling and open for pick up at the farm! Since New Years will also be on a Wednesday we plan to deliver on Tuesday Dec 31 to the Purple Carrot!
At this time we want to express our gratitude for all the support you gave us this year!! We are very thankful and feel truly Blessed! In the year 2025 we hope to work on the expansion of the mill so we can serve you better! Case and Herma Van Garderen

We got a couple times the request for recipes fit for the flour we make.
Overall you can make any recipe you like with our All Purpose Flour. When you try to find recipes look for whole wheat flour recipes or recipes with the kind of flour you are baking with (Spelt, Red Fife, Buckwheat, Rye, Brown or White whole wheat) I do like to look through all kind of recipe books and I did find a recipe in a Dutch store flyer We had a couple days off and spend them in the Kananaskis. We enjoyed the beauty of the mountains by hiking some trails.
We are back at home and one off the first things the miller did was putting on the mill so we can fill all your orders for next week! Thank you for all your support! We know this is a late notice, but we never know with all the work on the farm and in the fields when we can take a couple days off, but we will be closed next week for our annual summer break!
Orders will be filled for August 21 delivery! We are closed August 12- 18 Spelt berries are not available at the moment. We have a limited quantity in stock and are waiting for the seed cleaner to clean again a truckload for us! Sorry for the inconvenience.
Last week the mill was serviced and "dressed". Meaning the mill stones were sharpened and "roughed" up. This is done to prevent the stones from becoming too smooth, as the little grooves and furrows are what do most of the milling work! We have noticed that the mill is milling a bit faster now and also the flour is coming out even finer. Hope everyone has a great rest of the week! Hello everyone!
It is a cold Monday morning today. A perfect day to do some extra work in the office! As you may have noticed, our flour has new packaging. With this change, 3 lbs. bags are no longer available on the website. Broxburn Vegetables and the Purple Carrot still do have 3 lb. bags while quantities last. Due to packaging cost, most of the flour varieties in 5 lb. bags have a slight price increase. We hope you understand! Some more exciting news is that you can now also find our flour at Crystal Springs Cheese! As of January 2024 we stopped making Sifted Rye flour and Sifted Brown flour due to lack of interest in these products.
We are also not offering 3 lb. bags anymore , the smallest amount we sell is 5 lbs. As always we are open for requests , questions and suggestions! Greetings of the season and best wishes for the New Year!
We also want to take a moment to thank all of our customers of this past year for all your continued support. We have been busy!😉 Today we had the last farmers market of the season.
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all our customers! We are thankful for all the positive feedback you shared with us. The winter season is before us and we hope you keep baking! You can find our flours at Broxburn Vegetables, The purple Carrot, Roots and Fruits, Country Creek Market and Prairie Hill Farms. We are also open for orders and will deliver into Picture Butte, Nobleford, Lethbridge and Coaldale. There is also some exciting news... our first shipment with customized bags are on its way! The outside is going to look different, but our flour will be the same! |
