Products Containing 'Red Fife' Wheat
In June 2010 Superstores in Canada began selling their 1882 Red Fife loaf. They are recognizing their family heritage as bakers and the 1880s when Mr. Weston may have been using Red Fife in his breads. This is the first use of 'variety' preserved wheat in a food product in Canada. Organic farmers Holly and Ray Peterson in Tompkins Saskatchewan grow the Red Fife used in the Weston loaf.
Gananoque Ontario produced the first Red Fife beer in 2012.

“All that is told of the sea has a fabulous sound to an inhabitant of the land, and all its products have a certain fabulous quality, as if they belonged to another planet, from seaweed to a sailor’s yarn, or a fish story. In this element the animal and vegetable kingdoms meet and are strangely mingled.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The sower scatters broad his seed,
The wheat thou strew’st be souls.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
