The GOODS from GRAIN

Vancouver, BC | GRAIN is excited to announce the expansion of its retail dry goods program, offering more of our farm-direct grains and seeds to a growing list of select West Coast retailers.

As part of our mission to support Canadian farmers and reconnect people with the sources of their food, GRAIN is expanding its retail program to include Farro and French Lentils. These products join the four premium products that have already earned a reputation among local chefs and home cooks for their high quality and supply chain transparency.

Now choose from Bernie Ehnes’s Farro or Dwayne Woolhouse’s French Lentils, in addition to Bob Wallace’s Laird Lentils or Wheat Berries, Melody Ector’s Kabuli Chickpeas, or Michael Dutcheshen’s Golden Quinoa.

GRAIN is a Vancouver-based wholesaler and retailer of Canadian, farmer-direct grains, pulses and seeds. Offering direct access to the bounty of the Canadian prairies, an expanded GRAIN retail program is an exciting next step in our company’s progression.

ABOUT GRAIN

GRAIN is a new Vancouver-based wholesaler and retailer of Canadian, farmer-direct grains, pulses and seeds and a miller of fresh, whole grain flours.

GRAIN founders Janna Bishop and Shira McDermott source Canadian products exclusively, choosing high quality grains with total traceability, offering a complete story to customers looking for a stronger connection to the farmers growing their food. Realizing that Canada’s best dry goods are either exported or canned, GRAIN has set out to disrupt the traditional food supply chain by giving local consumers a taste of the prairies, supplying top-quality, nutrient-rich, Canadian dry goods with a story behind them. They offer classic Canadian grains like Hard Red Spring Wheat and durum, ancient grains like Khorosan and spelt, pulses like kabuli chickpeas and green lentils and seeds like Canadian golden quinoa.

Janna and Shira are constantly building new relationships with farmers across Western Canada, looking for new products — and the stories behind them — to bring to market. They are now packing retail and wholesale bags in their East Vancouver warehouse, eagerly awaiting the delivery of a hand-crafted stone grist mill from the Tyrolean mountains of Austria. When it arrives, GRAIN expects to immediately begin milling whole grain flours, offering healthy, fragrant and flavourful flour, rich in antioxidants, vitamins, protein and healthy oils.
