Diversity - white milo, red corn!

Diversity - white milo, red corn!

 

 

I'm tired of growing yellow corn and soybeans.

Because of government incentives and feeding large corporations with cheap grain, the US grain system has been reduced to many farms growing two crops.

I'm trying to do something different. This year I grew white milo and red corn and some acres.

We are planning to make a gluten free flour with the white milo (sorghum). Benefits of sorghum:

💪High in iron

💦anti-inflammatory - phenolic compounds (antioxidants)

🏋️weight loss - starches harder to digest

And corn meal from red open pollinated corn.

benefits of red corn:

💦anti-inflammatory -Anthocyanins lower inflammation markers per studies

❤️heart health -Anthocyanins lower blood pressure per studies

🧠brain health -Anthocyanins less cognitive decline per studies
