Indulge in the superior nutritional benefits of organic, non-GMO Hulled Barley! Unlike pearled barley, which has its husk, bran, and germ removed, this Kosher-certified barley only has the outer husk removed. This preserves its natural richness and nutty flavor, along with its chewy texture that transforms soups and stews into a hearty meal. Use it as a side dish, mix it with other grains, or add it to salads for a delicious and wholesome boost of essential minerals.

It all began on the Vetter family farm in 1953. That is when Don Vetter, questioning the science and ethics of the agricultural practices of the day, began to adopt organic farming methods. Don’s son David returned to the farm in 1975 after earning a Bachelor’s Degree in agronomy/soil science from the University of Nebraska. The Vetters were true pioneers, being among the first in the region to take the organic challenge. Their courage and perseverance paid off; the farm was certified organic in 1978, and became The Grain Place, Inc. in 1979. Now a well-established and growing business, Grain Place Foods is operated by a staff of two dozen highly-trained individuals, several of whom have been with the company for over 15 years.
The mission of Grain Place Foods is to provide to its customers grain products that are grown and produced in an ecologically sustainable and socially responsible manner – with the conviction that how your food is produced does matter! Based in Marquette, Nebraska.
