Wheat (Bread) - Huron

(1925) A bearded wheat from a cross made in 1888 in Ottawa. Hardy and good yielding mid-season variety that is still grown in Quebec and Atlantic Canada. In our wetter than average growing year, Huron seemed to have better yield and quality than more dry-land cultivars.

Our 2023 growing season experienced some serious bird issues in the grains almost devastating our harvest of a number of varieties. For that reason, we are reducing the packet size of three of our hard red spring bread wheats, including this one, to 5g for this year until we have replenished our quantities.
