Description: Introducing the golden Einkorn wheat from Womack Farm, a versatile grain seed suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. This ancient grain is not only edible but also lower in gluten, making it a superfood for health enthusiasts. With its cold-resistant and fast-growing features, it is a winter harvest favorite that can be used as a starter for wheatgrass or future seed crop. Maybe you’ve heard of Otzi the Iceman, Maybe not. His body, along with the last thing he ate, was preserved in ice for over 5,000 years. What do you think was present in Otzi’s last meal? You guessed it! Einkorn. It was clearly a staple in the region where Otzi came from. In other words, Einkorn has traveled a long way to be with us today. Due to its slip into obscurity, Einkorn escaped the tampering that many other grains went through. As a result, it is the only type of wheat that has never been hybridized (“crossing two genetically different individuals to result in a third individual with a different set of traits”) and still only has two sets of chromosomes. In non-scientific language, that means that it’s as pure as it was 12,000 years ago! The difference between Einkorn and regular wheat is in more than the digestion and nutrition; it’s clearly visible. Einkorn grains are smaller than wheat we use today and they are lacking some of the physical properties of modern wheat, such as the crease on the side. This packet contains 200+ seeds of heirloom quality that are organic and non-GMO. Cultivating Einkorn wheat is very easy, making it perfect for novice and experienced gardeners alike. Use it to add a touch of history to your garden or to experiment with a new addition to your diet. This is a great starter package.
