STARCH

Instead of wheat and oats comprising 90% of our starch, this area of our diet will look very different. We grew wheat, but it was planted and harvested by hand, so we don't have the unlimited quantity we were used to. Instead, we have:

  • 10 gallons wheat berries
  • 5 gallons field corn
  • 6 gallons sorghum/milo (which is used like rice or quinoa)
  • 150 lbs. potatoes
  • 400 lbs. sweet potatoes
  • 200 lbs. acorns
  • 40 butternut squash
