October Guest Speaker: James Brown of Barton Springs Mill

James Brown of Barton Springs Mills will be sharing his story of bringing heritage grains back to Texas. Get to know your local miller as he tells the story of being a long-time music conductor that sold his beloved violas de gamba to buy a mill and a banjo. He met organic farmers, collected seeds, learned about growing seasons and rain and drought and pests. He came to understand the toll of humidity, cross-pollination, and broken fork lifts on a deeply personal level. Ancient music, now ancient grains—none of it easy, much to be learned, all to be gained. You’ve tasted his grains at craft bakeries and breweries like Easy Tiger, Jester King, Sour Duck and from the bulk section at Central Market. Now meet the miller bringing organically grown, ancient grains and flavors back to Central Texas.
