Has anybody here tried growing free range wheat? If so, what were

your
experiences?

Free range as opposed to caged?


yes, battery farmed wheat. Free range seems far more ethical, better for

you
and the wheat.


It's terrible to think of those wheat plants in battery farm fields,
all crowded so close together, there's no room to lie down or turn
round.


exactly. My reckoning is that free range wheat has a far better life with
room to move, it is more ethical and shoud ultimately taste better than cage
farmed wheat. I reckon free range wheat muffins will be lovely.
