Life's a grind at Woodhenge!


Before we made the cheese we made corn bread. However, we made the corn before we made the cornmeal...

The four jars in this picture show you the three kinds of dry corn we grew in 2011...and a jar of corn meal that we made. Hopi Blue, pop corn and Bloody Butcher were the three kinds we grew.





The three of us using the Country Living Grain Mill to grind a quart of red corn into corn meal. It took a half hour to do one quart...the corn had to be sent through the mill 4 times before it was fine enough to use in corn bread.









What the corn meal looks like coming out of the mill.


















The final result!
