Why Our Flour Is Different
Most commercial rye flours are heavily refined or blended and stored for long periods.
At Fresh Acres, we mill our rye in small batches using cold, single-pass milling. This preserves flavour, nutrients, and the flour’s natural enzymatic activity which is essential for rye baking.
The dark colour and robust aroma reflect the grain’s full character and minimal processing.
Best For:
- Traditional rye breads
- Sourdough rye
- Pumpernickel-style loaves
- Crackers
- Blending with wheat flours
Baking Tips:
- Rye benefits from higher hydration
- Avoid over mixing as the structure comes from starches, not gluten
- Excellent for long fermentation and sourdough
Storage Tips:
Store in a cool, dry place. Refrigerate or freeze for peak freshness.
Origin & Transparency:
- Grown on our farm in New Lowell
- Freshly milled in small batches
Available Sizes:

Great product great value. I feed my sourdough starter this and it's been very active. Good quality local farm with easy ordering process and pretty quick shipping; would definitely recommend and order again.
The day after I received it I baked sourdough bread. It was wonderful. The flour has a very silky texture. The flavor was outstanding.
good taste!
My sourdough starter has never been so happy :) It bubbles like crazy. I made my first batch of sourdough bread today with the Whole Dark Rye Flour and the Bread Flour and my loaves are beautiful. It definitely makes a difference to use high-quality flours. Thanks, Deb :)
Rye flour is great. Haven't started bread flour yet but if it is as good as the rye flour I will be down in september to pick up enough to get us through the winter
