Ancient Grains Kit
Einkorn, emmer & heritage rye — three grains, three histories
Three grains that fed civilisation, now in one kit for your garden. This bundle includes seed packs of einkorn (Neolithic), emmer wheat (Bronze Age), and heritage rye (medieval) — enough to sow 15–20 square metres and produce grain for bread, porridge, and flour.
Each grain tolerates different conditions: einkorn for poor thin soils, emmer for heavier ground, rye for acidic and sandy land. Between them, they'll grow almost anywhere in Ireland without fertiliser or chemical inputs.
Full growing guides are included — from sowing through harvest, threshing, winnowing, and milling. Pair with our stone hand mill to go from garden to fresh flour in the same afternoon.
A meaningful gift for growers, bakers, history enthusiasts, and anyone interested in food sovereignty.
Species Included
Einkorn (Triticum monococcum), Emmer (Triticum dicoccum), Heritage Rye (Secale cereale)
Sowing Instructions
Each grain pack has its own sowing guide. Generally: sow autumn (September–November) for winter varieties, or March for spring types. Broadcast at 12–20g per sq m depending on species. Rake in lightly. See individual species guides for detailed instructions.
