Our process starts with the grain we buy. We partner with incredible producers around Saskatchewan, buying the best grains they
have to offer. We buy most of our grain directly from the people that grow it. This direct supply chain allows us complete
traceability. You can find the name of the farmer on most of our bags of flour too.
After we purchase the grain we have an independent grain cleaning plant clean all the weed seeds and chaff out of the grain.
We then bring it to our facility in Hague.
Once we are ready to start milling the grain, we start out by cleaning the grain again on our own cleaning line. Giving us one
more chance to verify the quality of the grain.
We mill very differently than other grain mills. We use a vertical Impact milling system. It is an entirely mechanical method of milling
grains. Rather than using stones and friction to gradually reduce the grain size our mill consists of multiple steel blades rotating at
very high speeds in an enclosed chamber. The blades strike the grain mid air with such an impact that the grain is immediately shattered
in to flour. The flour is then sifted for a consistent granulation with the oversized pieces going back into the mill to be re ground.
Our process was designed to keep all the nutrition that nature provides in the whole kernel of grain in our flour. Milling temperature
is critical for the maintenance of the nutrition. Our Ferkar mill is well designed for this with its recirculating air flow. The average flour
temperature while milling is between 70F/19C and 90F/32C.
After the flour has passed through our sifting chamber it is immediately packaged and is ready to be shipped out to the end user. The flour we produce on our mill is 100% whole grain. Nothing is added and nothing is removed.
