Description
Win this great signed copy of Consulting the Genius of the Place by keynote Speaker Wes Jackson. Wes is the founder and President of the Land Institute.
In addition to these books are 3 bags of KernzaÔ flour from the Land Institute.
Kernza™ is the naturally perennial intermediate wheatgrass being selectively bred by The Land Institute. Their goal is to increase the traits desired by farmers for a good quality grain crop. This method is time-consuming and highly labor intensive and a decade away from making it commercially available.
The nutritional report on Kernza™ - suggests that it has 1100 times the folate of annual wheat, over 500 times the calcium, 400 times the lutein, 300 times the Omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, selenium, and vitamin B-6. It is low in gluten and requires leavening baking. It should be mixed with bread flour.
