An incredible education day with Farmer Joe - Joe's Garden Patch

Our millers were on a roll today, milling away alongside an incredible crew of visitor assistant millers, while our bread-baking team kneaded up a storm!

Thanks to all that teamwork, delicious tastings made their way into the hands (and happy bellies!) of children everywhere.

A huge THANK YOU to our amazing volunteer team. You are the magic behind moments like these, and we couldn’t do it without you! ✨
