We get a lot of questions about how our pearler works, so we opened it up to give you a closer look!

Pearling is a process that makes cooking whole grains convenient and timely by removing a small portion of the outer bran coat, allowing water to absorb into the grain more quickly. Every box of Maine Grains farro and barley passes through this machine before finding its way into your kitchen.

October is National Co-op Month, and we’re celebrating the food co-ops that do so much more than fill our pantries. When you shop at a co-op, you’re part of something bigger. You’re helping keep food dollars close to home, supporting regional farmers and makers, and investing in a food system rooted in care, transparency, and community.

Co-ops are owned by the people who shop there, giving member-owners a voice in how their store operates and what matters most. To our co-op partners across the region: thank you for creating spaces where good food, local livelihoods, and community come together. We’re grateful to be part of it.
Happy Co-op Month!

Pumpkin pie, with a whole grain twist. 🥧🍂

A buttery, crumbly crust made with our stone-milled Graham Flour and Pastry Flour, filled with velvety, warmly spiced pumpkin. The Graham flour brings a rich, nutty flavor and a rustic texture that plays beautifully against the smooth filling.

Simple ingredients, whole grain goodness.

Meatballs, sourdough, and a very good cause. 🧑‍🍳

Maine Grains and The Biergarten joined the first annual MeatBRAWL to support AIO Food and Energy Assistance (AIO Food and Energy Assistance), which works to address food and energy insecurity across Knox County. Amber and Miles made a German Klopse meatball with barley, sourdough breadcrumbs, and Maine apples mixed into the pork and beef. We served it on a butter and chive sourdough crostini with creamy caper gravy.

The morning was full of trading meatballs with new friends, laughing over coffee, and exploring the farm. Congratulations to Ada's Kitchen for winning ‘Nonna Judges’, and to Crooked Spoon Co. for taking home People’s Choice.

Thank you Your Maine Concierge, Melissa Kelly and Primo Restaurant for sharing your beautiful space.

Lots of happy taste testers asked for the recipe, so you’ll find it on the Linktree in our profile. ⬆️

There’s a long-held idea that you need white flour to build a poolish, the starting point for a traditional baguette. Or that whole grain flour has no place in one.

But whole grain flour brings more to the table. A deeper, nuttier flavor, more texture, and the natural fiber and nutrients found throughout the whole grain. And we know firsthand that it can make a beautiful baguette, because we’ve done it ourselves. Not only is it possible, but it’s also delicious.

We love tradition. But baking is also about making it your own. Try a different flour or grain, and see how the process unfolds.

Tradition gives us somewhere to start. The fun is discovering where you can take it.

Rather than tilling it under, this oat cover crop was left in the field to mature then mowed a couple of weeks ago to encourage the seeds to sprout before cold weather arrived. The goal was to get a flush of young oat plants which will be winter-killed by the frost rather than coming back as w**ds next spring.

A simple way to let the weather do some of the w**d control, while protecting the soil with a carbon-rich mulch!

Farro is named for the Egyptian Pharaohs who once ate it, but don’t worry, you don’t need to be royalty to enjoy this grain!

Three ancient wheat varieties are used to make traditional farro: Einkorn, Emmer, and Spelt. They vary in different sizes, textures, and nutrition profiles. They range in protein and carbohydrate content, but each is high in fiber and packed with micronutrients. Perfect as a side dish or it into soups and salads delicious and versatile meals.
