Aunt Jemiah quit selling them years ago, the brand that is avaiable now isn't as good. Years ago the Perkins chain of restaurants had them on the menu, along with maple syrup, blueberry syrup and apricot syrup, they were good. [Reply]   [No Email]

For some reason, he trucked it to Canada to sell it. It smells really bad when it is blooming; drive past a field in full bloom and you'll swear a closed building full of manure 3 feet deep smells better than that field. [Reply]  [No Email]

Another good use also is for honeybees. They love it! Dad said my Grandad used to plant a band of it around the edges of some of his fields. He had about two dozen stands of bees. [Reply]  [No Email]

Good for smothering weeds then I till them under. I think Denny's in our area has buckwheat pancakes. They serve breakfast almost all day. They also have a free meal for veterans on Veteran's Day. So does the Golden Corral have a free meal on Veteran's Day. Hal [Reply]  [No Email]

I was told you have to use some wheat as buckwheat doesn't raise, so I use 75% whole wheat, 25% buckwheat, and buttermilk, as regular milk bothers me. This together with all the normal ingredients for pancakes works well. Harmony foods in Bemidji has buckwheat flour in bulk. The family that bought my parents farm has raised some buckwheat, had a good year last year! [Reply]  [No Email]

Small local ( NW N.C. ) flour mill makes buckwheat flour. Also wheat flour, both plain and self rising , also cornmeal. Guy at mill told me he gets calls from many states from people wanting it mailed to them but he doesn't have time and labor resources to do so. The mill gets its supply of buckwheat shipped in bags on pallets from South Dakota and I think, Pennsylvania and Ohio. [Reply]  [No Email]

It"s too bad because it is a very good food grain, grows well in poor soils and it great as a cover crop to crowd out weeds. I have used buckwheat seed for cover crops and am not allergic to the seed - only if I eat something with buckwheat in it. [Reply]  [No Email]

West Virginia grows a lot of buckwheat, though. I stock up every time I am there, though less frequent now. Wally- World sells a buckwheat mix, though, as you said, not as good as home-grown. Wife does not like them, but I can still make my own, deliciuos with maple syrup on a cold winter morn!! [Reply]  [No Email]

Wanted to get a few bushels for a green manure/cover crop a few years back. My seed supplier couldn't find any. Does anyone still raise it? Makes a course, hearty tasting flapjack. Wouldn't want it all the time, but nice for a change of pace. [Reply]  [No Email]

I do raise buckwheat as a cover crop in my garden, but have never harvested any,my wife doesn't like them either. The feed mill where I get mine buys them in Louisville, Ky., I think they come from somewhere in Ohio. [Reply]  [No Email]
