Hi Linda, our organic flours are still your best bet. For non-organic wheat, glyphosate is federally approved for use by farmers. Any application must comply with its regulatory approval, and, if used, residual glyphosate levels in wheat should remain well below the federally mandated level for wheat of 30 parts per million.
That being said, we are committed to sourcing all regeneratively grown wheat by 2030. As an example, our new Climate Blend Flour bares the Regenefied Certification, which requires farmers to reduce the number of herbicides they are using and then during the 21 days prior to harvest there are no chemicals applied. It’s not organic, but we are making sure there is a significant reduction in herbicides used on these wheats.
