THE STORY OF Sonora Berries

Sonora is one of the oldest surviving wheat varieties anywhere in North America.

Predating Red Fife and Turkey Red wheat, it is a soft white, round winter wheat with golden grains.

While earliest records document its existence in the mountain plains of Sonora, Mexico, in the early 1700s, the wheat surely predates that era by generations.

It was widely planted in California by the early 1800s.

HOW TO USE Our Sonora Berries

The ultimate grain replacement or substitute you'll actually enjoy eating!

Our bold, beautiful Sonora Berries are perfect for the farm-to-table supporter who wants to develop a closer connection to the processing of their food.

Our golden grains are perfect for crafting fresh flour or can be soaked, sprouted, and cooked to unlock new layers of taste, texture, and performance.

Whole Sonora Berries aren't complicated but rather a versatile whole grain, full of vitamins and fiber, with a sweet, nutty taste and a delightfully chewy texture.

They can be used in everything from stove-tops to Instapots, to pressure cookers and rice cookers.

It's the easiest grain replacement that cooks like rice and doesn't taste like birdseed.

STRAIGHT FROM The Source

My favorite waffles are made with Sonora wheat. It makes the lightest waffles. One time only, I was able to use just harvested wheat berries, and the waffles made from them were the best I have ever made.

This is my second order of the Sonora Wheat Berries. They have a good flavor and make a great bread.

RUSSELL KIMBLE

I use the Sonora Wheat Berries for all my non-yeast baking. Muffins, pancakes, and more. I love the golden color and flavor of this wheat. My order was packaged well, and the wheat is very clean and ready to mill.

I love this flour.

I feel blessed that I'm able to buy local stone-ground flour filled with nutrition and freshness. Also the bread, cakes, and tortillas I make with this flour has the color of wheat.

good service. haven't baked yet with this batch .

Great flavor

I love this flour for muffins, pancakes, and some types of cookies. Great flavor. Great customer service.

Love this wheat!

I made a really nice loaf of sourdough using 40% fresh milled flour from the Butler’s Gold wheat berries. Nice strong flour, good oven spring and nice crumb. Lovely flavor, no bitter notes. Will definitely be buying again.

Great aroma and taste

Tried this berry for the first time after learning about it from JON at Proof bakery.
The texture of the bread was amazing as was the taste. Highly recommend this wheat berry!!!
