A Treat From Mother Nature
Unlike most other grains in grocery stores, this wild rice isn’t genetically altered or cultivated. It’s a natural treat made by mother nature at the bottom of pristine lakes and rivers across Canada.
It grows on non-depleted soils at the bottom of pristine lakes and is planted by “Mother Nature”. Canadian Jumbo Wild Rice is the largest of wild rice kernels that become huge among the untouched wilderness.
This Canadian wild rice requires abundant sunlight, slow-moving streams, and fertile soil to grow. Once it does, it promises to add a deliciously earthy flavor to your recipes.
Our Canadian Jumbo Wild Rice is the largest, plumpest, and ripest of all the wild rice harvested in the US and Canada. Because of this, it takes a little longer to cook.
