Ben Penner Farms exists to inspire human flourishing through agriculture. My method is systematic entrepreneurship using a lean framework to learn and continuously improve every facet of the operation. The farm is located in three locations; on 33 acres near Belle Plaine, seven acres near Henderson and 15 acres near LeSueur, Minnesota. All of my products are certified by MOSA Certified Organic. I grow, market and sell alfalfa, hard red winter and spring wheat, food grade soybeans and cover crops. I use no-till organic farming practices using a combination of rye cover crops and crop rotations. If you are want to buy whole grain organic flour pleaseĀ shop at one of these stores!
My wheat is grown by me in Minnesota at 1100 W. South Street in Belle Plaine, MN.
I have a truly local flour. Grown, milled and sold in Minnesota.
Here’s a map where you can find my fields. Send me an email to set up a time to visit!
Hi Ben,
Got your address from Rhonda at the Chameleon in New Prague.
I bake and sell bread at the farmers market there and was just telling someone about Turkey Red flour.
I would like to try baking with it.
Do you do lighter extractions or just whole wheat?
Thanks,
Igor

Igor,
Thank you for contacting me! This season, I only have whole wheat (and whole rye). I could leave a bag or two of the Turkey Red at the counter at Chameleon if you want to pick them up the next time you are in. Let me know if that would work for you, otherwise I can deliver to you.
Ben

Ben, made French bread today with some of your wheat. It is so good. Hope to get more when the Qazi’s get back. Nan Bloch
