We stock Retsel Sourced tons of fresh grains. Some grains are in plastic bags, others are packaged in air tight containers to retain freshness to keep the moisture and insects out. We carry chemical free, GMO free, organic grains and no-organic grains. We only sell grains to future or previous customers of ours that purchased our ELECTRIC grain mills to keep the inventory in time of need for our customers only. Most grains are shipped within two weeks, paid preferably with check and are non refundable due to USDA laws. Try a small batch first and if you are satisfied, order a pallet form us. Please e-mail/call with inquiry and we will send you a quote. We will do all the arrangement so you will know exactly how much it costs (including shipping), how (pallet , buckets or boxes) and where it's delivered, ( your curb address, local farm) before you send us money.  All shipments are insured so if your package is damaged or lost or stolen you will be compensated. We will do all the logistics but it daes take up to 4 weeks to  process your claim. Your best pricing is always shipping via trucking company on a standard size pallet. We do not sell grains wholesale. We travel to Utah, Wyoming, and Montana periodically and will deliver with out company truck. You may order and pick up grains at our warehouse, but you will need to pay 6% Idaho sales tax if you choose to do so. All larger grains purchases are on a will call basis and have to be paid in full in advance with check only. Smaller quantities may be purchased with a credit card.

The reason why we sell mostly chemical free, GMO free, non-grains is due to the fact that non-organic grains often packaged by huge volumes and are stored in one ton totes sometimes for many years during the hot summer months in non-ventilated warehouses to save on energy and storage costs.
This practice compromises not only the nutritional value of the grain, encourages weevils but also the taste of the finished product.
Our organic grains are certified organic and are rarely kept for longer than one year. All our containers of grains have factory traceable lot numbers imprinted on them for inventory purpose.  Most  local grains are harvested sometime in the early or late fall and delivered to us shortly after the harvest.
