our story
nice to wheat you
One of the forerunners of local small scale farming in the Lehigh Valley, Teena Bailey, owner of Red Cat Farm grew mixed vegetables for close to 20 years until an Extension agent suggested she should cover crop her vegetable area. Teena planted a cover of red fife wheat, but when it came time to till it under, she thought it was so beautiful and let it go to seed. Her foray into growing wheat has turned into her niche, providing local, expertly-milled, open pollinated grain products that are sought after by all kinds of Lehigh Valley bakers.
Teena grows open pollinated grains and wheats, which are old-standing strains that have not been hybridized or much altered for mass market production. In some instances, these varieties of wheat are more easily tolerated by people with gluten sensitivities. Of course these varieties are free from GMOs and are not sprayed with harmful chemicals. They are mechanically harvested when naturally ripe, not sprayed with herbicide to hasten maturity which is better for people and the planet. The grains are then milled locally into a fluffy, light flour that bakes up beautifully.
