This was an activity that we did all through 2012.

I had a remarkable experience with the grinding wheat and planting dreams with the kids of the Montessori School of Tecate.

Robert Arjona, General Manager for Rancho La Puerta, helped grind some ancient wheat of KAMUT ® Khorasan wheat as part of our kid activity offered at the Rancho La Puerta Posada December 9, 2012. As a Prize for helping to grind the wheat, the Kids and adults got to choose a gift of Heirloom Seeds to take home and plant. The day had lots of kid activities. Nadine and I were gratified to offer this nature activity. In the Olden Days of Rancho La Puerta, Edmond Bordeaux Szekely taught that it was important to grind wheat fresh for bread. I felt his spirit was smiling on us as we brought back the very enjoyable experience of grinding fresh wheat that would be made into a bread.

This specific batch of KAMUT ® Brand Khorasan wheat was turned into A Healthier Pizza by Nadine, two weeks later! The fresh grain was held under refrigeration.

THE PROJECT OF GRINDING WHEAT WITH KIDS WILL MATURE IN 2013

It will dovetail with Conversations with Vegetables. This will bring out some of the legacy of Dr. Bernard Jensen. He understood the Voice of the minerals and how they spoke through various vegetables that had dominant balances of various elements.

This is told in the book, "The Chemistry of Man."
