Early Morning Harvest
Early Morning Harvest cultivates grains, produce, honey, and eggs on our family farm near Panora, Iowa (just outside the Des Moines metro). We stone-grind our certified organic grains into flours, meals, and cereals. Our year-round produce grows in aquaponic, hydroponic, and seasonal greenhouses and gardens. Caring for our land and animals is our top priority, and we take pride in never using synthetic chemicals on our farm. Providing fresh, healthy food for our community is our mission.
Testimonials

Thank you and a shout out to Early Morning Harvest. What an asset in the Panora community. This business has really grown and is continuously developing great relationships with many other Iowan-owned businesses. Their business model brings to us a wide variety of food items made somewhere in the state directly to us. I love to visit the store but I know many people also appreciate that EMH delivers to spots in Panora. If you haven't stopped by, I strongly encourage you to take the time!

"Wheatsfield Co-op has proudly carried Early Morning Harvest flour for the last decade, and it has been joy to watch this outstanding local company grow. We're proud to use their locally grown and milled flour in our co-op bakery, where their commitment to organic farming, careful stone-milling, and true "seed-to-bag" transparency is reflected in the exceptional quality of every product. Early Morning Harvest flour is truly second to none, and we are honored to share it with our community."

"At Home Kneads, the quality of our bread starts with the quality of our flour. We use Early Morning Harvest flour in every loaf delivered to Fareway because it's truly unlike anything else. The flavor, the nutrients, and the integrity of this flour shines through in every bake. We're incredibly grateful to these local farmers who believe in doing things the right way and investing in high-quality, thoughtfully milled flour. Their work makes our bread better--plain and simple."
