Minnesota grown Wild Rice

Wild Rice (Zizania aquatica)

This water-loving grass produces a nutty-flavored seed that is eaten by humans and waterfowl. Once found throughout Minnesota, it has been an important part of the lives and culture of American Indians who have lived in the Great Lakes region long before the arrival of European immigrants. Today it is Minnesota's official state grain.

Since Jager Foods is a Minnesota based company we decided many years ago to include Wild Rice Shiitake Mushroom Soup Mix into our product line.
