In his younger years his dad would wake him up early on weekends to assist him in the garden. After leaving home, Mike sought out opportunities to work on farms to gain first hand experience from professionals and enthusiasts alike. In October of 2020, Mike, his wife, and their 4 children took on the challenge of a lifetime; establish a thriving homestead in the desert of Utah. His life has been substantially influenced by the writings of Wendell Berry and what he learned at the Permaculture Certification Course he and his wife attended back in the summer of 2019.

These grains are considered “ancient” because they have remained largely unchanged for thousands of years, unlike modern wheat varieties that have been heavily hybridized. Hall’s work involves educating people about the nutritional benefits of these grains, their lower and more digestible gluten content, and their use in baking, particularly sourdough. With over a decade of experience in whole-grain and sourdough baking, he partners with farmers using sustainable methods to produce flour and bread mixes. His mission ties into a broader interest in historical grain cultivation and traditional milling practices, though he operates in a contemporary setting rather than with literal ancient mills.

I love having an official homestead and am working to incorporate all the different skills that I have learned and actively seeking opportunities to implement more.
