A melding of ecology, botany, agriculture, community food systems, and cooking, Berries and Flour uses many uncommon plant crops in our products, some from local farms, some from fields, and some from our forests. Each of these Midwest plants has its own story to tell!
​
By teaching how to recognize, harvest, process, grow, and consume more traditional, regional foods, we encourage folks to eat closer to home. This practice is ever so important considering many of the economic, social, and environmental issues we face today.
​
We readily collaborate with many individuals and organizations toward food accessibility and justice. We do cooking demos, give edible gardening lectures and foraging workshops. Our predominant “store front” are local farmers markets, and our products can be found in our farm store and in in regional stores.
Our commercial kitchen, inspected by IL Department of Public Health for wholesale, enables us to produce our own value-added products, but also allows Berries and Flour to operate as a small-scale fruit and vegetable processing facilityoffer , and kitchen rental for other micro food operations. These activities contribute much-needed components of a strong local food system in Central Illinois!
Thank you for your patronage and support of local foods!
We are a very small business, so we need 8 days to process, schedule, and make your order. We may be able to make things sooner, but please communicate with us before you place an order.
