Description

Enjoy a selection of Farm Fresh Rhode Island products with this Johnnycake Basket from Carpenter's Grist Mill in South Kingstown.


Known as Carpenter's Grist Mill since 1874, when it was purchased by the Carpenter family, the quaint little grist mill on Moonstone Beach Road in the Perryville village was built by Samuel E. Perry in 1703.


It remains a working mill where Rhode Island Whitecap Flint Corn is stone ground by water power. In continuous operation since it was built, it is the only water-powered mill currently operating in Rhode Island.
