Anyone who is familiar with the War Eagle Mill knows that in October over a quarter million people come to our valley for the world famous War Eagle Mill Arts and Crafts Fair. But let's not forget football games, roadside fruit markets with apple cider,Halloween and last but not least, we have the breathtaking Autumn color in the Ozark hills. You'll see leaves the same color as our Cornbread and Pumpkin Butter! The sight will fill your soul, but then you'll need to stop by our Bean Palace Restautant so we can fill your tummy!

If you are not fortunate enough to make the trip, we have some recipes that will give you the wholegrain, fall flavors right in your own home. Our baker, Faith, comes in every morning at 2 a.m. to bake the bread, cookies and rolls we serve at the Mill. Her cookie recipe uses our White Wheat Wholegrain flour and pumpkin for a wholesome, tasty treat. So go ahead – have a little Faith!

We also have a Halloween recipe of sorts – Spider Cornbread. It's not as creepy as it sounds – read on!

War Eagle Mill is proud to offer a wide variety of whole grain flours, meals and mixes. Please take a moment to browse our online store and experience these quality products for yourself. Get started with these whole grain recipes!
