Joshewea’s Garden

Joshewea’s Garden sells soaked and sprouted flours, nuts, nut butters, seeds and pre-​soaked cereals that are ready-​to-​eat and/​or ready-​to-​cook. I nabbed that line from their website, because I couldn’t think of a better way to describe their yummy products. Everything is made with whole grains that are unprocessed & other locally sourced/​organic ingredients. I first picked up a bag of their banana muffin cereal on a whim in a quaint little coffee shop in Hartford WI back in October, just as a snack to tide me over until I got back to Milwaukee & cooked dinner. I ended up polishing off the whole 8oz bag. It was SO delicious! Great crunchy texture, crispy almonds & a heavenly banana flavor that didn’t taste artificial at all. I made it a point to stop in that coffee shop each time I was in Hartford to pick up a bag (or three) of the pre-​soaked oatmeal cereal; it is the absolute best granola I have ever eaten. The coconut flavored cereal has big tender slices of real organic coconut that are simply heavenly, not that icky sugary shredded kind you find at grocery stores. I’m eating some right now!
They had a Facebook promotion late last year after they were making a batch of new Vanilla sprouted snack mix & forgot to add the vanilla, so they were giving bags of the «Oops» batch away for free to their customers. All you had to do was send them an email with your address. They sent me a free bag, & the sprouted nut snack mix was just as delicious as the granola. It was cashews, almonds, sunflower seeds & coconut pieces sweetened with honey. Mmmmm! I had a great idea to bake the snack mix into a shortbread cookie, but I ate it all up before I could even start baking anything.
I can’t wait to try their nut butters, their other flavors of oatmeal cereal (a friend of mine in NC ordered the orange pecan & loved it), & their trail mix. They also run a sheep farm in Ashippun that sells farm fresh lamb meat & eggs. You can even purchase them online! They’re super friendly folks who make healthy snacks/​food with locally sourced organic ingredients that are insanely delicious. I think if more people knew that healthy food tasted this good, they’d definitely change their mind about it. I just had to add them here on Unilocal
