Why are they more nutritious and better for those with gluten intolerance? Find out why older varieties of wheat, rye, barley and oats are becoming popular with artisan bakers, brewers and distillers.

Part of the Hairy Barge Event Day: A number of talks and workshops at the intersection of heritage, craft and contemporary art to mark the arrival of our Hairy Barge into Coventry; bringing our straw harvest to the communities that will help to transform it this Spring/Summer into the Hand Earth Gesture Return public art installation.
