Michigan Wheat is the consumer page of the Michigan Wheat Program, a non-profit organization funded by the state’s wheat farmers. Wheat farmers are providing facts about wheat, including nutritional information, crop information and great recipes. They are very proud of the winter wheat crop they grow and want to share that with consumers. Michigan wheat is mainly used for pastries, such

as cakes, cookies and piecrust, and for crackers and pretzels. Michigan also produces wheat berries, which are becoming a popular side to serve with meals.

Very well deserved recognition for Frank Vyskocil! Frank was one of the wheat farmers on the initial Michigan Wheat Program board who developed the programming and worked as our treasurer to develop our financial policies and oversee our funding. Frank does an outstanding job and is very deserving of this recognition!!

Our first featured seed grower is Frank Vyskocil of Shiawassee Valley Farms in New Lothrop, MI. Frank had originally partnered with our company founder, John Diehl, to grow seed. This partnership is strong and longstanding. Thank you Frank for supporting DF Seeds as a PROUD SEED GROWER.
