Whole organic wheat grain from the revolutionary YQ population, grown by Turners of Bytham in Lincolnshire.
YQ wheat grains can be cooked and eaten whole, or milled at home (we recommend using a Mockmill) for flavoursome and nutritious flour.
The YQ (Yield and Quality) wheat population was bred at Wakelyns Agroforestry by Professor Martin Wolfe and the Organic Research Centre. The population is a crop of extraordinary diversity that's emerged over time from a wide range of carefully chosen parent varieties, leading to fields of millions of genetically distinct individual wheat plants rather than the usual genetically uniform monocultures.

I have been baking sourdough for many years using various starters including making my own. This is the best I have ever used as recommended by Henrietta Inman. Along with YQ flour this makes wonderful 100% wholewheat bread.
For my breakfast I generally have Kefir soaked with oats. Bought black Barley recently and started adding a spoon of it to the mix. It has added a new depth to the flavour and hugely elevated the pleasure of that meal. Please grow more of it.
My first loaf using Hope Farm YQ wholemeal together with Crow Hill Farm Rye starter/leaven, I found the taste exceptional with a lovely moist crumb, no big holes but plenty of acceptable ones. I baked it with a reasonable amount of steam in the oven. This flour is not cheap but for me the quality well justifies the cost.
I enjoy these with soya milk and berries as a porridge
Great taste from the mix of grains - jumbo & rolled oats; malted wheat, rye & barley flakes to which I add Hodmedod's linseed & pumpkin seeds; and some whole almonds. Tasty
