Hayden Flour Mills — Local services in Gilbert

Sincerely disappointed... we visited the Queen Creek location years ago (2017 I believe) and the store was so cute - lots of local foods (tea, olive mill products, etc) as well as home decor and kitchen items. We chatted with the owner - she was wonderful! I was so looking forward to visiting again.

Last week, when we arrived at the Queen Creek location, I had to find someone on the property that informed me that the store had moved to Gilbert (no signage anywhere). The next day, we traveled to Gilbert. Stark contrast.... the 'store' is located in an industrial park next to the loading dock. It is now just a shelf in the lobby with products on it. Even though there were people working in the office area, no one bothered to come and greet us, no one asked if we needed help... you check out yourself using a QR code. I bought a box of pancake mix only because I promised my son but I wouldn't go back. It just felt like they really don't want...

Grains grown on site in Queen Creek and Coolidge contribute a local staple of our central Arizona community. I spoke with James who is a lively, intelligent and caring farmer. Through his over 30 years of experience at this one farm, James knows how best to cultivate these beautiful ancient grains such as Sonoran White Wheat. Bryant helped fulfill my order of Wheat berries and was very kind and knowledgeable regarding the flour mill operations. The gift the soil has to share is immeasurable in its benefits especially when seeded or malted first to unlock the full potential of the grains nutrients. I will be a repeat customer for sourcing quality grains locally to reinforce a special pillar of the agricultural community. Thank you for all the hard work the hands at Sossaman Farms and Hayden Flour mills produce for my bakeries needs!...

Cute little farm store, selling flour and baking mixes, made from locally grown wheat, milled on site. Doesn't get any fresher than this. We bought pasta made at the store the day before. Prices are a bit high, you can check at their website before you go. Most products are $4 per lb. It is hard to find, I live close by and had no idea it was even there. If it wasn't for the chalkboard sign next to the road, we would have driven right by. If you go, the back of the building faces Sossaman Rd, it's the one that says Sossaman Farms on the back. The parking lot is dirt, you are on a working farm afterall. They also have very limited hours, so check...
