Grand Teton Ancient Grains Organic Einkorn Berries
Reader ratings
Whole organic einkorn berries from an Idaho family farm and mill, the lowest price per pound we saw. USDA Organic is confirmed; the glyphosate-free claim is the maker’s own. Einkorn contains gluten and is not safe with celiac disease.
Best for Cooks and bakers on a budget who will cook the berries whole or mill them at home.

How we evaluated it
Why we chose it What put it on our list
- The USDA Organic Integrity Database lists Ancient Grains, LLC dba Grand Teton Ancient Grains (NOP ID 2170041852) as certified by the Idaho State Department of Agriculture since 2013, with Einkorn in its handling scope.
- It is a whole grain by form: the page describes the berries as whole grains, unmilled, with the hull removed, so nothing is sifted out.
- The price is the lowest we saw for organic einkorn: $11.21 for 2.5 lb ($4.48 a pound), $26.91 for 7.5 lb ($3.59), $50.23 for 15 lb ($3.35) and $143.95 for 48 lb ($3.00) on 2026-10-22.
- The maker says it packs in paper bags “to eliminate contact with plastic”, and its FAQ gives a shelf life: up to 2 years in paper bags.
Trade-offs What to weigh before you buy
- The glyphosate claim is the maker’s own. It says it tests the berries and certifies them glyphosate free, but names no lab and posts no results. Grand Teton is not on The Detox Project’s residue-free list.
- The page does not say where this grain was grown, or give a harvest year or pack date. The FAQ says the farm also contracts growers across northwestern North America.
- The hull has been removed, which the maker says drops germination to 40 to 50 percent, so these are for cooking or milling, not sprouting. You need a grain mill to make flour.
- Einkorn is wheat. It contains gluten and is not safe with celiac disease. The FAQ only advises talking to a health professional first, and says many people with gluten sensitivity tolerate it.
What to know Details worth knowing first
Grand Teton Ancient Grains is a family farm and mill in Teton, Idaho. These are whole einkorn berries, sold in paper bags, and they are the lowest-priced organic einkorn we found: $4.48 a pound in the 2.5 lb bag, down to $3.00 at 48 lb. Cook them whole, like the farro in our farro article, or grind them in a home mill.
The USDA Organic Integrity Database confirms the organic certification. The glyphosate-free claim is the maker’s own: it says it tests the berries but shows no lab and no results (see what glyphosate is). The page also leaves out where this grain was grown and when it was packed, which is why the score is 3.
Einkorn is wheat. It contains gluten and is not safe with celiac disease (see celiac disease). The maker’s FAQ is softer, so do not rely on its wording. Buying the Amazon listing costs more per pound than buying direct.
Quality & testing How it measures up against our checklist
| What we checked | What we found |
|---|---|
| Organic or residue-tested Verified | USDA Organic, confirmed in the Integrity Database (Idaho State Department of Agriculture, certified since 2013, profile updated 2026-08-07). The maker says it tests for glyphosate and names no lab or results. |
| The grain named Maker’s claim | Einkorn berries, which Amazon’s listing also calls farro piccolo. The variety is not stated. |
| Whole grain, stated Maker’s claim | The page says whole grains (berries), unmilled, with the hull removed. |
| A mill or pack date Not verified | No harvest year or pack date on the page. The FAQ says grain lasts up to 2 years in paper bags. |
| Where it is grown and milled Not verified | The company is a family farm and mill in Teton, Idaho. The page does not say where this grain was grown, and the FAQ says it also contracts growers in northwestern North America. |
| Gluten Maker’s claim | The FAQ says einkorn is not gluten-free and recommends talking to a health care professional before trying it with celiac disease. |
What the labels mean
- Verified We opened an independent record that confirms it: a certifier’s listing, a regulator’s list or a lab report. It is linked under Sources.
- Maker’s claim The maker says so on its own page or label. We read it but found no independent record.
- Not verified We looked and could not confirm it, or the maker does not say. Treat it as unknown.
