[QUOTE="New Puritan, post: 4224432, member: 39018"] Thinking about coeliac / gluten free... My girlfriend is fine with wheat grains and the growing plant, it's only once it has been processed into flour that it becomes an issue. She can absorb it through her skin - she used to use playdough at work (she works with children) until she found she had a reaction to it. So actually a gluten-free farm wouldn't particularly make sense, as at the moment things sold as gluten free or suitable for coeliacs must have come from farms that also process gluten containing plants. And even if I were to stop growing them, there'd still be volunteers and wild oats etc. This is a bit of a brain dump to be honest. I'm just always scheming on how I can make these 46 acres niche enough to justify the time and investment they seem to want to absorb. [/QUOTE]
