There’s something magnetic about Memphis… and it’s already pulling us back. The food is FIERCE, the vibe is ALIVE, and the song playing always seems to match your mood. Huge shout out to Southern Foodways Alliance for pulling off yet another stellar symposium.

After countless years and endless orders from the crews at their incomparable restaurants, it was super special to finally meet two of our OG, unwavering supporters: Chefs Andy Ticer and Michael Hudman — the minds behind Andrew Michael Italian Kitchen, Catherine & Mary's, Hog & Hominy, josephine_estelle, and the newest addition, Rosie’s Tavern. Effortless excellence and a wisp of whimsy permeate everything they do, and we are forever fans. Do NOT miss them in Memphis, y’all.

We love you Southern Foodways Alliance… can’t wait to see what’s next!

BEHIND THE GRIND: Millstone Edition 🌾

These mesmerizing millstones have made it abundantly clear: some things are too good (or too gorgeous) to keep to ourselves.

Welcome to the first installment of “Behind the Grind,” a new series exploring the beautiful, lesser-known, and occasionally obsessive side of milling entirely to order. In other words: milling and shipping your orders the very same day, twice weekly, for over two decades.

Meet our North Carolina pink granite millstones, crafted with intention in every curve. Those grooves help cut our grain and guide it through the mill, making their beauty very much a matter of function.

The practice of keeping them in fine form is called millstone “dressing”: the artful upkeep of their grooves and cutting surfaces as they wear. Properly dressed stones cut efficiently rather than crushing or smearing the grain, helping limit unwanted heat along the way.

That care supports a cornerstone of our cold-milling craft: protecting the freshness, flavor, and aromas of our heirloom grains by milling to retain their fresh, oil-rich germ. We begin with viable, new-crop seed, frozen until it’s time to cold-mill your ingredients to order.

Wondering about that bright red? …Better dust off those crayons y’all, because it’s Crayola! Nothing works better to mark high spots so our incredible millstone dresser, Daryl Truesdale, knows where to pick, chip, or grind material away. Our stones get this TLC about every six months, or sooner when needed.

So there you have it: a little art appreciation, a closer look at the craft. Swipe to see these beauties getting dressed by the best!

FIELD NOTES: OATS! Swipe through to see the freshest look inside our farming. The last three weeks have been ALL about Ancient Oats (peep those pretty panicles… 🌾🥣🥀)!

Our time spent farming in the fields often doubles as research in seed genetics, and these chem-free crops are a perfect example. Shout out to the incredible folks at Longleaf Family Farms in Orangeburg, SC for their perfect research plots and exceptional expertise. 🙌

If you tend to find oats forgettable, or even more tragic: flavorless 🫣, GIVE US A CHANCE to change your mind… you won’t regret it.

Custom milled to order from freshly harvested, chem free crops — stone cut on the bias, NEVER rolled (we’ll spare you from our rolled-oat rant for now, don’t worry 😂).

Check out the link in bio for more info about our Oats, related recipes, and our retail order page. Enjoy!
