GROWING BARLEY GRASS
Today it is practically grown all over the world in the temperate belt, but Barley has a long-standing tradition in Europe. It needs plenty of sunshine, long warm seasons and adequate moisture.

The young barley is pressed and the resulting pulp gently dried for 2 minutes at 41 degrees celsius. This produces a RAW green powder that retains all of its biologically active substances, vitamins, minerals and trace elements that so much benefit the human body.
