June Product of the Month! 

The Athens Messenger has named Shagbark Seed & Mill's tortillas as June's Product of the Month!!

What is Shagbark Seed & Mill? In short, it's the realization of a dream.


 

Michelle Ajamian and Brandon Jaeger had a goal of impacting the local food system and economy in a positive manner. They wanted to help create a sustainable food economy through the use of grains and beans and they wanted to impact Athens and beyond.
