Falls Church: Moutoux Orchard Local Flour

- Locally grown and milled flour!
I get asked all the time if I know a place to get locally grown & milled flour. Somehow, I’ve miss Moutoux Orchards all these years. They are a local CSA/Direct farm that grows the standard fruits and vegetables, but also has grains. Art D. and I took our first trip over to the Falls Church farmers market and were really pleased by what we found. This market isn’t exactly nearby for us, but somehow I think we’ll be find excuses to head out there more often.
Crepes...nom, nom, nom!
Moutoux Orchard flours are just a small taste of what’s to be found there. Sadly an ATM did not seem to be nearby, so our shopping was limited. There are about 40 vendors at the summer market, so the selectionwas great. There was even a crepe stand — something we’ve not seen at our usual stops (Takoma Park, Bloomingdale, and Dupont Circle)
