Are these organic hulls grown in the US? Is any chemical process used to clean them? I am extremely chemical sensitive.

Hello, yes these are certified organic buckwheat hulls, grown in Madison, South Dakota. There are no chemicals used in the cleaning or any other process. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you for your interest in our buckwheat hull crescent..

We bought these for our Tower Garden product. If you don't know what the Tower Garden is check out our web site http://neumann.towergarden.com for more info. Our Tower Garden came with rock wool that looks exactly the same but the cubes were double the size. We had to double up with these cubes which were half the size. They should be Organic and I don't think there are any chemicals or anything bad in then. Hope that helps.

No, the are not hulled. They have a little husk on them but they are SO DELICIOUS! I know that some people cannot process the hulls.

I was concerned at first too. But they were labeled USDA certified organic. I found the chestnuts to be consistent. Fully cooked. Stored well in fridge.

Its all natural i am not sure if its certified organic, however we are an all natural farm- no-chemicals and these seeds are fine- not coated in chemicals.

It's wrong. They are not organic. Even the Bob's Red Mill website doesn't show any organic potato flakes on their site. Since they make numerous organic products, I'm sure it would say it on the pkg. I wish they were. We eat almost all organic foods. These are a spurge for us. Basically like our take-out night since we don't eat any of that stuff (we're gluten, dairy and chemical preservative free). They are easy and tasty. I add s&p and avocado oil and a but of garlic powder and they're great!

I don't believe these dates were organic. I do not know where these dates were grown although many of the dates grown in the US come from California.

The manufacturer says that all materials are 100% organic. I have no indication of any chemicals in the hulls or the pillowcase.

They are organic. I could not use them other wise. But I am not the seller so the extraction process would need to be directed to them. I have had nothing but good luck with this seller ,good quality I use then in healing blends that my creek native american have mixed for years .

No. I don't think they are hulless but they are definitely low hull compared to yellow popping corn. Much softer and less stuff in your teeth.

I went to their website and saw nothing about being organically grown. I see nothing about their farming process, in fact. As I commented below to another poster, it's great that these are non-GMO, but nothing about being organically grown.

Sorry, I ran out of these a few days ago and am waiting for my next shipment of them. I really liked them but didn't notice if there was organic on the package or not. I find that Bob's Red Mill will list in the description of an item if it is organic. It is not listed so it must not be!!

Hello Dawn, I do not know why amazon selected me to reply to this question. I bought a 25 Lbs bag of Hulled Barley from Great River Organic Milling. I know they are based in Louisiana? I am sure that by doing a google search about Great River Organic Milling, they will happily answer your inquiry. Good luck and Happy Holidays!

I have also tried washing them and would consider the tint in the water to be a natural result of hydrating the dried berries. I finally just assumed the berries were pre-washed because there were no twigs, leaves, or other litter in them. Anyway, since I bake with them (they make a chewy substitute for raisins), I assume the heat would take care of any contamination problem. In other words, I think they've been washed.

The Organic version is made without the use of pesticides, genetic engineering, and so on. This might be helpful to you:http://www.organic.org/home/faq

The only thing in this product is 100% Organic Whole Psyllium. I can't imagine what they could possibly find hazardous in this product. It is stated on their label that where their crops are grown, no pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers, and post-harvest chemical treatments are used. I can't figure out California's problem unless they have something against this company. Hope this helps.

Yes they are hulled and all I have to do to make Soymilk is rinse them and soak them.
