Our Story
Surrounded by snowcapped mountains and encircled by glacier-fed rivers, three generations of our family raise the world’s most nutritious hulless barley to bring your family the freshest, most wholesome food possible.
When we settled in Delta Junction, Alaska back in 1983, the Alaska Flour Company was just a dream. We imagined building a farm that would increase Alaska’s food security, create markets for fellow farmers, provide healthy, locally grown food options, and offer our children the opportunity to continue our operation into the future.
We knew Alaska's unique conditions - a short growing season and long, dark winters - would require innovative farming techniques and never-say-quit determination. We cut firewood our first winter, eventually buying a 1,700-acre farm, on which we raised five children.
In 2011, our hard work, perseverance, and passion for nutritious, locally grown products paid off when we founded the Alaska Flour Company, the only commercial flour mill in Alaska. (The next nearest mill is more than 1,500 miles away.)
The mill produces a long line of barley products. Our 100% whole-grain, stone-ground barley products are high in fiber and low in fat, gluten, and cholesterol. And our other products - from our dark chocolate brownies to our cinnamon chip pancakes - offer a delicious, one-of-a-kind experience. All our products are offered at dozens of retail outlets throughout Alaska and through our online store.
Homegrown, family-owned, healthy, delicious food – that’s what it’s all about at the Alaska Flour Company. Join us in making a healthy difference in the way America eats.
Sincerely,
Bryce & Jan Wrigley
Founders of the Alaska Flour Company
