Eli Rogosa & UMass Amherst Help to Establish Ancient Einkorn Wheat
Eli Rogosa talks in this video about the UMass Amherst program to preserve and establish heirloom wheat grains, including einkorn (Triticum monococcum), into modern agriculture.
It’s interesting how she describes the root system of the heirloom grains compared with the shallow root system of modern wheat, which relies upon chemical fertilizers.

I am interested in getting seed wheat for einkorn. This would be for a small family farm. We have realized the great health benefits of einkorn flours and would like to grow our own.
Thank you,
Ellen
Is it possible to buy seeds, einkorn or other ancient seeds to ship to Australia.

I would like to obtain some unhulled eincorn wheat for fall planting at my biodynamic farm in New Jersey. As a pilot program, I am also concerned about what will become a sustainable agriculture in this age of GMO contamination. As sprouted grain as well as wheat grass, eincorn wheat will be a part of my initiative. Amaranth (for greens) is also significant.
Is it possible for me to obtain 25 pound so unhulled eincorn wheat for fall planting – from you? If you know of any sources, please inform me at your earliest convenience.
Regards,
Joy
