We are extremely proud of the high quality, organic and locally produced ingredients we use. Here are a few of the wonderful companies we work with.

Grain Millers is proud to offer a full line of certified gluten-free oat products to help our customers meet the needs of the gluten-free community.
While oats are naturally gluten-free, they often come in contact with wheat, barley and rye as the oat supply moves from the farmers’ fields to our mills. Our approach to removing these stray kernels of non-oat grains relies on a few key elements. We begin by choosing only the cleanest incoming raw oat shipments to put through the system. These oats are then processed through a dedicated series of mechanical and optical sorters that use natural differences in size, density and color to isolate and eliminate any remaining non-oat grains. Finally, the resulting pure oat stream is milled and packaged using equipment that has been cleaned extensively prior to the gluten-free production. Finished products are comprehensively tested using industry-leading ELISA technology in a dedicated gluten-free laboratory to guarantee that nothing leaves our door unless it complies with our third party certifier and the FDA’s strict gluten limits.
