Grind your own flour

Have been grinding my own flour with my Vita-Mix dry mixer for a couple of years and it is wonderful. Here is a great link offering the challenge to grown your own grain along with your peppers and basil. Pretty interesting, although I am not doing it. http://www.alternet.org/environment/140300/homegrown_grains%3A_the_key_to_food_security/?page=entire

Loved the article, thanks for sharing pierino. Very Nostalgic. Grinding flour was the norm in India up until 20 yrs back when the commercial brands were introduced in a big way. We'd take bags of wheat & set it in line to be grounded by the flour guy who was perennially covered with a dusting of flour!

Brilliant, Sadassa_Ulna! I'll add the link to pierino's question.

Oops, I'm sorry, I didn't realize my link was exactly the same! We can try this (shortened through bitly): http://lat.ms/hj71qM

The hyperlinks are getting messed up because of the commas in the link itself -- so you'll actually need to copy and paste the whole thing, up to ".story"

Pierino, this is very cool, thank you for sharing it!

Link didn't work for me, is this the story:
