what is the differance in soft white and hard white wheat, which would probley be the best to get?

Here are the basics:Spring and Winter refer to the time of year the seed is planted.Hard and Soft refer to the volume of gluten in the grain's cellular structure.Hard wheat is higher in protein and gluten, lower in moisture, and absorbs liquid easily; it's considered the ideal variety for yeast breads. Soft wheat is lower in protein and gluten, higher in starch, and more malleable. It's grown mainly in the South and Midwest and works best for non-yeast quick breads. When you see a recipe calling for "pastry flour", it's referring to flour made from soft wheat.Red and White refer to the color of the berry, which indicates more or less fiber and bran. Red wheat has a stronger, heartier flavor and tends to produce a a somewhat denser, coarser bread than white wheat. Graham flour is simply coarsely ground winter wheat.

Is this grown using organic practices of has it been sprayed with pesticides?

The information on the package goes to great lengths to assure the customer of the wholesomeness of the product, however, I do not see the word "organic" anywhere. Perhaps you can find more information at www.palousebrand.com or www.facebook.com/palousebrand Good luck! As an aside, I have used these in cooking (I use them to replace ground meat in recipes, and have made salads with them.) and I have no complaints.

Does palouse use roundup, other herbicides and/or pesticides? non-gmo does not necessarily mean toxin-free, so i am asking to make sure.

How do you know the neighbor farms spray doesn't cross over into your crop? My parents lost a good percentage of their trees because this happened in the palouse.

If I wanted to buy a bag 3 to 4 months before christmas as a gift...would they hold up stored for that long?

Yes it does! I bought it like 3-4months ago and store in room temperature, it still in good condition ( i live in Arizona but AC always on ) . I planted it as grass for my cats & this brand was extremly good quality, all growed up. My cats r happy, i was worried b4 buying this product that what if it not gonna work?!! But it works perfectly!!!
