Northern Grain Growers Collaborative
NGGC is a vibrant network of growers, bakers, researchers, millers, maltsters, distillers, researchers, seed preservationists, and food system enthusiasts, rooted in Vermont. Our focus is on all aspects of grain production and on cultivating collaboration within the grain community across the northern region.
Our mission is to promote the growth and renewal of grain cultivation in the Northeast by supporting farmers through education, variety trials, and by building a network of collaborators throughout the grain economy.
