The Carolina Farm Stewardship Association plans to create a North Carolina brand of organic bread flour and develop suppliers and market use in the farms and bakeries of North and South Carolina, according to a report in The Herald-Sun of Durham.
The nonprofit CFSA, based in Pittsboro, N.C., promotes a regional food system that serves consumers, farmers and businesses in the two Carolinas. It has received $80,000 from the Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Co. to help establish the N.C.-brand flour and promote the business of organic farming regionally through its “Organic Farming Transition Project.”

I am already using wheat that i planted last fall . It is a great idea to develop regional brand produce as long as it is not becoming some sort of exclusive agency owned label where you have to pay a fee to use .. More infos would be necessarry to the public . |
