Description
From grain to flour in your hands! Help students explore where bread, pastries, noodles, tortillas, and other grain-based foods begin by grinding grains right in your classroom. This hands-on grain mill connects agriculture to everyday food while encouraging curiosity about the process of growing, harvesting, and preparing grain. Students will see, touch, and process grains as they turn the hand-cranked grain mill to transform grain into a food-prep ready state.
Includes instructions and all 7 parts (please check to ensure you have included all parts when returning mill). Clamps easily to desk or table.
