Environmental Sustainability
No-Tilling
The no-tilling method is at the core of our sustainability practices. We are able to build valuable, nutrient-rich topsoil by directly seeding the next season’s crops.
Crop Rotations
Customizing a crop rotation to complement the climate, land and season allows the farmers who grow the wheat for Stone-Buhr All Purpose Flour to return nutrients to the soil and maintain its quality.
Food Alliance Certification
Food Alliance certifies sustainability at every level of our production of Stone-Buhr All Purpose Flour. The certification process begins at the farm and doesn’t end until the bag is on the grocery shelf, bearing the green Food Alliance seal of approval.
