About Monmouth Farm
We are a small family farm in Eastern Kansas (88 acres), developing a farming system based on sustainability and regenerative agriculture. We are focused on growing an heirloom wheat, Rouge de Bordeaux. Rouge de Bordeaux wheat presents an opportunity to introduce an heirloom grain, with more extensive root systems and increased drought hardiness, into our farm management. We grow Rouge de Bordeaux wheat using regenerative farming practices, including extensive use of diverse cover crop rotations. Such practices develop healthy and productive soils, resulting in more nutrient dense crops. Breads made from Rouge de Bordeaux wheat are noted for their nutty, sweet, rich flavor and exquisite aroma. The whole berries are often described as exhibiting strong aromas of cinnamon and baking spice. Rouge de Bordeaux wheat was well established in the Bordeaux region of France by the mid 1800's and became a mainstay wheat for French bakers to produce superb breads and pastries. After World War II and the industrialization of agriculture, farmers were encouraged to shift to modern, higher yielding wheat varieties, leaving Rouge de Bordeaux in the hands of a relative few farmers who chose to keep the variety alive through farm-to-farm seed sharing. Today, farmer seed sharing makes this grain available once again. We are excited to be part of bringing Rouge de Bordeaux wheat back!
