KAMUT® Ancient Khorasan wheat at San Diego County Fair

Anna came up with a great idea yesterday! Enter a bouquet of our KAMUT® Ancient Khorasan wheat, growing in our Tower Garden TM and in a wine Barrel container, in an Agricultural Day Contest at the San Diego County Fair.

I am going to look up the dates for the contest now.

Hello Leslie,
Thank you for your interest in the produce contest at the Infield Farm.
I researched what category would best include the grains and you are correct in placing it in the fruit category under 'other'.
I look forward to hearing about your endeavors to grow Kamut and would appreciate any info you bring in about it.

See you at the Fair!

Hi Jennifer,

I would like to enter some stacks of ancient homegrown wheat, very rare, in the Homegrown Produce Contest.

It is technically the berry of the Wheat plant. Possibly it could fit in Class 16 of fruits.

I am exciting to show the results I have gotten acclimating this grain to San Diego.

It is a very unusual plant and I would show it is a vase.


Can you find a category for me for this grain of ancient wheat called Kamut ® Khorasan wheat?

I would appreciate this very much.


We also have may have some tomatoes by then, or berries., maybe some kale.

I would appreciate you getting back to me
