Rachel Britten
Rachel Britten is not only the Owner and Operator of Mendocino Grain Project, but she is also a farmer herself! The Mendocino Grain Project is an incredibly important project that makes small scale and local grains possible. It is a mill, it serves as a hub for local farmers, and it’s also a seed cleaning facility. At the Grain Project’s farm in Ukiah, Rachel dry farms wheat, rye, lentils and fava beans. Rachel’s fava beans will be the key ingredient to our newest tempeh coming soon!
