Grain Sprouts

Grains are a quick sprout, taking as little as 20 minutes, and no more than 2 or 3 days to produce a finished sprout.

If you let large grains like Wheat, Barley, Rye,etc.) grow for several days they produce Grass.

Grains are all sweet, though some are sweeter than others. Kids tend to love them because of their sweetness, so they are often a child's first positive sprout experience.

They can be used in breads, as a cereal, in stir-frys or as a snack - or anything else you can imagine. Oats + Groats and Amber Waves make a fantastic super nutritious breakfast - top with some fruit, nuts, milk, maple syrup....anything.

You won't believe how great Grain Sprouts can be!

Purple and/or White Hulless Barley

quick sprout which is a bit less sweet than other grain sprouts.This hulless grain is great for sprouting and can also be used to grow Grass (though we recommend Whole Barley, when available for that).
We carry Purple and/or White Barley. When we have both we mix them. We always sell the best sprouting seed we can get our hands on regardless of color, though we are very fond of purple.

Corn Sprouts

Out of stock

Yellow and Blue Field Corn

We use Corn in our Big Bird Mix, but we no longer sell it straight. We never eat it ourselves - it is tough and chewy. Corn can be steamed, but we didn't like that either. We do have Sprouting Instructions for Corn - which is why it is here. Just follow the link. We offered Corn because we had it, and because it is written about in finer sprouting books - and the seed is Beautiful, but we no longer feel it a good offering. Corn remains in our Big Bird Mix.

Kamut Sprouts

$6.42
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Kamut® is an ancient grain which is now a patented product. The story we have heard is this: A farmer from Montana, while serving in Northern Africa during WWII, found some grain seeds. He brought the seeds back to the family farm and after years of raising the crop on their land, the family applied for - and was given a patent. Whatever is the case, this is a truly awesome grain! It is bigger than wheat and slightly less sweet as well as more tender.

Millet Sprouts

$5.45
per Lb.
Add to Cart

A small, beautiful, round, shiny seed, Millet is great in breads, as a mildly crunchy addition to salads or anything else you can think of.
Sprouted Millet has a really cool mouthfeel - it sorta pops. Birds love it too!

Oat Sprouts

$6.35
per Lb.
Add to Cart

These are Hulless Oats - they are a very fast sprout and are a wonderfully tender grain with a mild sweetness.

They ARE a grain grown with NO Hull - therefore they are Hulless.
They are NOT hulled - therefore They are NOT Groats.
They are NOT heated in ANY way.
They ARE Raw.

There's a lot of confusion about Oats. I hope I cleared it up - - if you were one of those confused @;-)

Oats and Groats Breakfast Sprouts

Buckwheat Groats + Hulless Oats

Breakfast Sprouts?! It's about time!!!

Top these sprouts with milk (cow, soy, rice, goat...) and a little maple syrup (our favorite) and you have the perfect breakfast. It has been a very long time since we ate breakfast with any regularity, but this has changed our lives. Oats + Groats is delicious (the maple syrup doesn't hurt either =;-) and has a great soft crunchy texture. One-half cup of this "cereal" provides a great nutritious, and delicious start to your day - it is a "no brainer", try it and see.

Oats + Groats is a Very Quick sprout. You can Soak it for 1/2 an hour, Rinse it, Drain it, and eat it up (once soaked a seed is alive), or you can sprout it longer - whatever you like.
Though a very simple mix, we consider it one our best. Try some Sprouts for Breakfast!

Rice Sprouts - Brown

$6.25
per Lb.
Add to Cart

If you want to sprout Brown Rice, then Short Grain grain is usually the way to go as the seed is more likely to be intact (un-broken), than longer grain browns - though long-grain can sprout well too - so sometimes you'll get that. Whatever sprouts best is what we have to offer.
Rice produces a bulging germ or a tiny sprout - but cooks up more quickly and has greater nutritional benefit (like all sprouts - yes, even when cooked sprouts are way nutritious) and it's sweeter!
You may eat it raw if you like, it's just kinda chewy and tough for - - for us anyway.

Rice Sprouts - Red Thai

$8.25
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Red Thai is - to date - the best sprouting rice we've seen. Almost every lot we've had sprouts readily. It has a wonderful flavor and is very similar to Wehani in appearance.
It is less tough than Brown Rice, but we still prefer to cook it. It cooks up more quickly and has greater nutritional benefit than dry rice, of course.

Rice Sprouts - Wehani

$8.25
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Wehani is a spectacular, aromatic, mahogany long grain rice with a savory, musky, nut-like flavor.
Really gorgeous, Wehani is listed in several Raw Food cookbooks where it is called for uncooked.
It is less tough than Brown Rice, but we still prefer to cook it.

Rice Sprouts - Wild

$16.54
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Wild Rice is all together different. It is too long a grain to survive intact through harvest and all the shipping it encounters between the farmer and you, but though it has a higher percentage of broken seeds than other seed we sell, it soaks up water readily and quickly - and to us - is the most edible of raw sprouted rices.

Though our other rices produce a bulging germ or a tiny sprout - Wild Rice doesn't seem to do either. But, it's so good, we really don't care. It is edible raw (Lori loves it!), and cooks up more quickly if you're going that way. Either way it has greater nutritional benefit.

Rye Sprouts

$4.40
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Another sweet grain sprout favored by kids and adults alike. Rye is easy to sprout. Great in breads, as a snack or best of all; as the basis of Rejuvelac.

Spelt Sprouts

$5.25
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Spelt is one seed which we carry only occasionally. Spelt is a great alternative for those allergic to Wheat. This is a Hulled grain (as are most grains), which, because it is relatively soft, usually gets damaged (broken) in the hull removal process. Some lots have more broken seeds than others. We have gone many years, more than once, between great lots of Spelt. It's very difficult to find. To find out about this year's crop, read our Crop Notes.

Triticale Sprouts

$5.85
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Triticale (trit-ih-K-lee) is a Grain developed not too many years ago (in the late 1800s). It is a combination of Wheat and Rye, so it is sweet and easy to grow as a sprout - as well as being of course, very nutritious.
It was originally thought to be a solution to world hunger as it is easy for farmers to grow in most parts of the world. Triticale combines the high yield and good grain quality of Wheat with the disease and environmental adaptability of Rye.

Wheat Sprouts

$3.45
per Lb.
Add to Cart

Amazingly sweet, Wheat is a quick and easy sprout favored by children and adults alike.
Snack on it, grind it and throw a bunch into homemade breads, add to stirfrys or salads. Wheat is very versatile.
We carry Hard Winter Wheat - usually Red but on occasion (only once in all of our years as Sproutpeople) White. Hard Winters sprout exactly the same and they have the longest shelf life.

1 Qt. Jar

The least expensive, most basic sprouter, Jars - when topped by Screen Lids, are a fine choice for any skilled sprouter or for those willing to work a bit more diligently at rinsing and draining, or as an additional Sprouter, for easy sprouts, like Beans and Grains. A great choice for Pre-Sprouting Grass and Greens too!

Sproutpeople Stainless Steel 3-Screen Sprouting Lid Set

Made by Sproutpeople!

Fine mesh, Medium mesh and Coarse mesh.
Our 3-Screen Lid Set is made up of Stainless Steel Mesh - in 3 different mesh sizes (fine, medium and course) - each nestled in a heavy-duty Plastic Ring. Our Screen Lids fit Wide-Mouth Jar Mason Jars, like those we sell.

The wider the mesh - the more readily water and air pass through the screen. Use the fine mesh (the finest mesh size ever!) for small seeds (Leafy and Brassica sprouts), the medium mesh for Grains and small Beans and the coarse mesh for large Beans.
As your sprouts grow bigger, you can move to a bigger mesh size to improve air-circulation and facilitate the escape of hulls, thus making de-hulling easier.

Bio-Set

Bio-Set is a low-rinse, round, European sprouter with 3 growing trays, a drip tray at its base and a reservoir tray on top.

Though we dislike Bio-Set as a Sprouter - due to its poor drainage and air-circulation - it remains quite popular.

Fine for big seeds like Beans and Grains, Bio-Set is among the most attractive Sprouters.
We continue to offer it due to our customer's demands. Please Don't buy this before thoroughly reading our detailed Bio-Set page.
