Has anyone tried any of their buckwheat products? I'm looking for replacement products for my current ones.

Check out the recipes also. There are some really good looking ones!

I am lucky enough to live a few miles from them. They are my choice for buckwheat products. I buy their Pocono line. I even use their buckwheat hulls in pillows and as a mulch around my trees and flower bed. Absolutely no CC risk with them and good products.

Thanks!! Thats what I was hoping to hear. I'm going to place an order soon. :)

Well, I was going to place an order until I saw how much they charged for shipping! :o It doesn't seem to matter if you have a big or small order they charge the same flat shipping of $19.95 and $7.00 handling ($26.95 total), OUCH. I was looking on another site to order organic/gluten free for other flours and I had a total weight of 11+ lbs and over $60.00 worth of items and shipping was $14 and change. I don't mind paying a little more for a better product, and expect reasonable shipping charges, but that seems excessive to me.

You should be able to find it in some of your local stores. It could be in your health or organic food section or in some places in with the cereals. You could try calling around to some places or calling the company directly to see what stores in your area might carry it. If you can't find it locally give me a PM and perhaps I could pick some up and ship it to you. Priority mail flat rate shipping isn't cheap but it should be less than that and a med size box would hold a few boxes of the Kasha or Cream of Buckwheat.

I have found the cream of buckwheat in some stores locally but I don't have any interest it that. I did ask two of the places if they could order the flour and groats and they said no. I'm waiting to hear back from EarthFare to see if they can order. If I don't get anywhere I may take you up on that offer. I'll let you know.

You could grind the cream of buckwheat into flour yourself. You could use an inexpensive coffee grinder for that. That would at least give you the chance to find out if you react and how you like it before spending a lot of money on a mail order. Some really sensitives like me have problems with that, or it could have been an intolerance, but seemed to improve when I washed the stuff. I think that there are some cc issues in the fields.

It never dawned on me to do that with the cream of buckwheat. Thanks for the tip! I bought a small bag of buckwheat groats by Eden Organic that I thought I could grind. I don't know though if my little coffee grinder will tolerate those. I don't know if the other products were a problem for sure or not, but I am trying anything right now.

My grinder, which was the cheapest they had at Walmart, did grind the groats. Hope it works for you.

      Hi, so just to put you in the picture, I’ve had lots of digestive issues over the past 6 months, diarrhoea, constipation, gut ache, cramps, head aches, lost 2 stone in weight am perimenopausal.. need I go on. I know some of this is caused by stress and I’ve always had to watch what I eat so noting too processed of fatty and rich. I’ve had blood tests, stool tests gall bladder scan, repeated tests and nothing showed up (which is good) I tested negative for celiac back in March. I’ve just done 6 weeks gluten free and I have to say things got better. My doctor told me to reintroduce it so I did this 9 days ago but gently and I’m still keeping some gluten out of my diet. My question is how long can it take for a reaction because my diarrhoea constipation and cramps are back but only in the last 4 days and it started with a slight unsettling tum feeling first like it might kick off but not sure. So I’m wondering if this is just a coincidence or if it can take your body that long to react? Anyone else been through this? Advice needed!

      I was not diagnosed with celiac disease, but am gluten-intolerant. I have been gluten free for almost 10 years. In April of this year (2025), I got a steroid shot. I have been able to eat sourdough bread before with no problems. After the steroid shot, I developed gluten-neuropathy, and I could no longer eat sourdough bread, and now the neuropathy returns with small amounts of gluten.  I also get POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) when I eat gluten. My heart beats so fast in the middle of the night I can't sleep. I'm usually up for hours.

      This is my current exhausting battle with the medical field. As Ive mentioned in past I was diagnosed in 1994 by colonoscopy and endoscopy and was told i was celiac and to stay away from wheat and Ill be just fine.NOPE not at all in fact im worse thanks to being disregarded and my new word that was given that fits perfectly medically gaslight for over 30 years.I was not informed by anyone about the condition other than its a food allergy. Long story short if it wasn't for this website.I would be so much worse. I have been glutenfree since 1994 and was diagnosed with many other foods in 2007. I have stayed away from those items, except dairy sometimes I'll cheat when I know I'll be home a few days.My work history is horrible thanks to my digestive issues. I had my past primary for 25 years and everything im going through, he danced around celiac disease. My last day of employment was March 08, 2023 I was a bus driver and took pride in that.I get sick easily and when covid hit me and I stopped taking tramadel to push to give my bloated body a break, I haven't " bounced " back.Though not that well before but worse now.I applied for disability because yet again I was fired solely on health, which by the way seems to be legal because no lawyer wants to help.I was denied and my primary stated let me fluff it up a bit.FLUFF IT UP A BIT?He has been my doctor for 25 years! All that Im going through was basically ignored and not put together. I switched primary doctor and seeing new gi and its EXTREMELY EXHAUSTING because they are staying all my test came back clean, good, its normal. Except THANKYOU LORD JESUS HLA DQ2 is positive that Itty bitty tiny little test of positive FINALLY VALIDATION RIGHT.No, Im still struggling and fighting its not fair

      Since medical insurance is not affected directly by celiac disease on an ongoing basis (i.e. medication, medical devices, daily monitoring, home care nursing, etc), I rather doubt anyone would be denied a policy for having it as a pre-existing condition. I’ve certainly never been and I have two pre-existing conditions that are managed with diet alone and both are long-well-known by my doctors and via medical testing and procedures. Insurance is all about risk management, not health.
