I couldn't find a good local source either. I drive out to these folks in PA. It's probably a stretch for you.

How far north? In Ashtabula County, just south of I-90 at the Route 45 in Austinburg ( exit 223 of all things) the store with the huge rocking chair can order it for you. If you are really interested I can find the number for you. Last time I was there it was $23'ish for a 50# bag.

Thanks for the reply…
I’m just willing to make the drive, thus I put in North of Columbus. I thought about taking a chance and stopping at Medina’s Feed Supply and see what I come up with. Astronwolf and Safe 1, I’m not sure if you know that Lehmans also has Hard and Soft Wheat for $35 for 25 lbs… Not the best price, I was hoping for about $1 per pound, so YES Safe1, if you even tell me the name of the place, address or phone number I’ll find it... at those prices, it's worth the drive. I was thinking that maybe someone from Middlefield could have an insight or a connection. Why can’t I live in Boise? http://boise.craigslist.org/grd/1450560769.html |

There's a place in North Bloomfield too. This place and the Austinburg place probably get their wheat delivered by Frankferd Farms (see my link in a previous post.) Frankferd maintains a regular delivery route in Ohio.

Frankferd maintains a regular delivery route in Ohio. Thansk for the link (even though it isn't my thread  )I am going to give them a call tomorrow. I hope the pricing is a dated in the catalog and prices have come down to what I ordered the bag from B-n-B.

It's not easy to find since what's grown here is usually soft winter wheat. |

The "hard stuff" has to get trucked in from the upper midwest. That increases the price, and the distributor has to get their profit too. Wheat was less expensive a year ago. IMHO the price increase wasn't so bad. Beans went up in price something like crazy.

309 S Broadway St. Sugarcreek, Ohio 44681 330-852-2896 Might be worth the drive, not just wheat but lots of other items. spices for instance. |
