Bob's Red Mill Whole Grain Store and Visitor Center located in Milwaukie Oregon along highway 224 is worth visiting even if you find their products sold at your local super market because this store has an inventory of different products that is mind boggling. There are a total of more than 500 different products that the pack, manufacture and distribute some only seasonally.

The Visitor Center is visible from the highway and looks like a big red barn. When you drive up to it though the gates you see it has what is probably a full size ornamental water wheel operating in front and inside it is moving all sort of gears. The actual factory is a mile away. To see an actual antique mill in the Portland Area you can look up the Grist Mill outside of Vancouver Oregon on the Washington side of the river. This mill is real just not antique. It does have the water wheel on display and big granite milling stones that may or may not be antique. These could be stones they actually use in the mill for stone grinding.

Once you walk inside there is a dizzying number of different products for sale from hole grains and beans to a whole super market aisle with different types of milled flours. Chefs , Cooks and Bread makers should make a visit just for a learning experience if not to find types of grains , flours and other products not easily found elsewhere. Most super markets that carry Bob's Red Barn Product do not carry nearly as many as in this flag ship company store.

Products of note include various grains like teff. Have you heard of teff? It is an ancient Egyptian grain and it is the world's smallest grain and is one that is suitable for consumption by diabetics as glutten free. There is bagged teff and various grades of ground teff including teff flour. Teff may just be one of the grains you may not have ever heard of before available at Bob's Red Barn. If you care for the Organic label this is definately the place for that too.
