After 20 years of dreaming, scheming and a TON of hard work - the water turbine is finally in the mill race. There are so many people to thank - our employees, close friends, customers, even mechanical machine enthusiasts who volunteered their time and resources to help us with this mammoth of a task. It was so much more than just moving a 5,000 lb hunk of metal - a massive amount of restoring, building and design work went into this project. We are so close to being able to run solely off water power, a dream that is not only historically valuable, but is an incredibly bountiful source of clean, renewable energy. This is SO exciting we can hardly believe it!

Timelapses were filmed by @tannermcgrath , and there’s going to be a lot more videos coming, so stay tuned!

Here is a special pasta we are running this weekend that’s made with perfect flour from Castle Valley Mill. We love the story of how the flour made its way to us!

Chef Garren’s parents and grandmother stopped by the Castle Valley Mill store a few weeks ago, and they mentioned to the folks there that their son / grandson makes fresh pasta all the time for a restaurant in Denver. The owners of Castle Valley Mill decided to mail Garren some of their exquisite flour, which they send to multiple Michelin-starred restaurants throughout the northeast. Chef Garren used the flour for this weekend’s pasta special, and we’re all so impressed.

Here, find porcini pasta made with Castle Valley stone ground flour, shiitake and crimini mushrooms, locally grown Swiss chard, and house-made pancetta.

The secret to great baking is having the right ingredients✨

There is an absolute shift that happens in your kitchen when you upgrade your flour. You can feel the elasticity in a well-hydrated dough. You can see the silkiness in fresh egg pasta that holds its shape.

Different techniques demand a flour that can keep up. Lower quality just doesn’t give you that golden chew or structural integrity.

When your ingredients do the heavy lifting, your craft truly shines 🌾 Special thanks to Castle Valley Mill in Doylestown, PA—they’re a wonderful family-owned mill and their products are truly superior!!

We had a great, albeit hot summer day for our Castle Valley Mill tour:

Dating back to 1730, @cvmllc has been a cornerstone of local history since it began grinding grains on the banks of Neshaminy Creek. Originally constructed on land granted to the Meredith family by William Penn, the mill has been known historically as Grove’s Mill and Reed’s Mill, evolving into the Castle Valley Mill that remains a vital part of our community’s heritage today.

Our host gave us all an overview of the mill with tours for the entire group. Colonial period cooking techniques, and samples of bread baked with flour from the mill. taken in Castle Valley Mill by @cvmllc

We’re celebrating America’s 250th in art, and at the museum cafe with the all-new Blueberry Cornbread Muffin with Honey Drizzle by @mamahawkskitchen! These specialty muffins are baked with flour and cornmeal from Bucks County’s Castle Valley Mill @cvmllc, a historic grist mill that has been grinding grains since 1730.

It’s the perfect nod to the Washington’s Crossing exhibition, since George Washington’s favorite breakfast was a stack of hoecakes. Family members and visitors said he ate these cornmeal pancakes covered with butter and honey, and washed it down with hot tea. These simple cakes originated with Native Americans, who taught early colonists how to cook them over an open fire. Hoecakes were a staple in households across 1700’s Virginia, but we’re loving this modern version!

Cornmeal pancakes, also known as johnnycakes or hoecakes, have deep roots in America’s history, each region and culture giving them their own unique names and recipes. George Washington’s own undisputed favorite breakfast was a piping hot stack of cornmeal pancakes - served smothered in butter and honey. This mix, made with our stone ground ingredients, is our way of honoring our country’s farmers, millers, cooks and revolutionaries. Come by our store at the mill tomorrow, Friday & Saturday to get some for yourself!

When we started reimagining Florida Cuts, we started thinking a lot about bread. Bread is, after all, the main ingredient in all of our sandwiches. This summer we decided to go all-in – now, all of our bread is sourdough, baked in-house every single day.

We spent a lot of time thinking about what should go into our bread, and we’re proud to be using only organic flour, much of which is stone-milled and/or local.

Using fresh organic means that we can say our bread not only tastes really good, but it’s actually good for you. And, using flour milled from responsibly-grown wheat means we’re supporting a larger food system that’s good for us and the planet.

Big shout out and thank you to @cvmllc , @centralmilling, @cairnspringmills for supplying us with delicious & nutritious grains. taken in Ventnor City, New Jersey by @cvmllc
