Where are the oats grown?

You might have to contact Bob's Red Mill directly for that question. I visited the factory and factory store in Milwaukie, Oregon the summer of 2014, but I didn't think to ask where the oats are grown and the label doesn't specifically say 'oats were grown in Oregon' or anything like that.

NO!!! They are produced in a factory that also has wheat AND the oats are NOT from a dedicated field. Most fields are rotated (e.g. oats one year, corn the next to maximize soil nutrients). In order for a product to be GF, the oats MUST be grown in a dedicated field (no crop rotation). Cross contamination between wheat and oats in shared fields is almost a given. Since oats in this product are grown in a 'shared' field it cannot be GF and almost certainly has trace amounts in it.

Yes oats are grains. Oatmeal is healthier than just putting ground up oats as in flour or ground up left overs from a factory.

Yes, Crop Improvement Association (OCIA) International is one of the world's oldest, largest and most trusted leaders in the organic certification industry. Not only are they organic they are whole grain meaning they are not de-germinated and you receive the full benefit of the product. To insure freshness, we have to nitrogen flush to remove the oxygen which is more costly but provides you a higher quality product.

I don't know where they were grown, but they were fine. I have however, had good luck with food and other products from China.

From data on the Handy Pantry website, it seems that their products are grown in the USA and Canada.http://www.handypantry.com/faq

Yes. The oats are from Canada, are non-GMO but they are packaged in Utah. I contacted the manufacturer to confirm this information after getting my bag which said UTAH.

The problem with oats is that they are constantly rotated with glutenous crops such as wheat, barely, rye etc. So cross contamination by being grown in the same field is an issue. To be sure it's gluten free the crops have to be grown in dedicated oat only fields with no glutenous crops being grown around it or rotated in the fields. Yes, Bob does still make GF oats, I picked some up today at the store. If in doubt make sure it says GF for your healths sake.

Plant or location? Grown from the heritage blue corn preserved by the native peoples of the southwest. I don't remember exact grower, but was well satisfied with growing method and quality.

I am almost positive that oats and barley are different but you can easily go to Bob's Red Mill website and ask them (they have a link) and the question will be answered for sure!

I don't know as I've always had the "quick" oats. You could read the packages to get nutritional info. It is sold locally at Whole foods.
